I am slowly but surely filling up our house with quilts. But since our couch is getting quite full, I've recently started thinking about other ways to incorporate quilts into our house. I love the useful nature of quilts as well as the visual appeal so I decided to make a set of quilted placemats using my Not Alone Star quilt pattern. It was also a good project to practice my hand-quilting. I hand-quilted all of these placemats in the evenings over a few days - the perfect relaxing couch evening activity.
This would also be the perfect project to update your Thanksgiving or Christmas table decor or to make a set or two as holiday gifts! Homemade gifts are my favorite to give and receive.
Not Alone Star Placemats Tutorial: Supplies
- Not Alone Star quilt pattern: Printed pattern or PDF pattern
- Fabric - To make 8 placemats follow the fabric requirements for the *Baby Size Not Alone Star Quilt
- Marking tool - I use a Sewline pencil to do all my fabric marking
- Pins
- Batting - I used leftover from several quilts I had longarm quilted. You will need (8) 16" squares of batting
*The only exception to the fabric requirements are for Backing and Binding fabric:
- Backing Fabric: 2 yards
- Binding Fabric: 1 yard (2.25" binding strips)
Not Alone Star Placemats Tutorial: Instructions
Follow steps 1 through 15 in the Not Alone Star quilt pattern to sew and assemble your star "blocks" (placemats). I made my placemats scrappy with a variety of golds, blues, and browns for the stars and a variety of dark grays and blacks for the background. The binding is Peppered Cotton in Blue Bell.
Cut (8) 16" squares from your backing fabric.
Cut (16) 2.25" strips from your binding fabric.
Make a quilt sandwich with your star block, batting, and backing fabric and Baste as desired. My preference is to pin baste because it is less messy than spray basting (in my opinion).
Quilt as desired. Like I said, I used these placemats as a good project to practice my hand-quilting. I quilt using DMC floss and I love the look of a thicker thread and big stitches. I followed the outline of the star and the outline of the inner star to make my hand-quilting stitches.
Once you have quilted the placemats, trim and square up the placemats. They will be 15" square.
Sew (2) binding strips together for each placemat. I sewed the binding onto the front with my sewing machine then hand-stitched the binding on the back of the placemats using a big exposed stitch. I love how this adds extra character to each placemat.
And that's it! Make a set for yourself and a set for someone else! Or a Thanksgiving set for yourself AND a Christmas set for yourself. You have options.
Happy sewing!
Be sure to tag #plainsandpine and #notalonestarquilt if you share photos of your project on Instagram. I'd love to see what you make!

I Lost Cryptocurrency to a Pig-Butchering Scam — Can Crypto Really Be Recovered?
I was contacted through WhatsApp/Telegram by someone who presented themselves as a professional crypto trader and mentor. Over time, they built trust and introduced me to what appeared to be a legitimate cryptocurrency investment platform.
Initially, the platform showed profits, which made everything seem real. However, when I attempted to withdraw my funds, I was asked to pay additional charges such as withdrawal fees, taxes, or account verification costs. New demands followed each payment.
Eventually, I realized the platform was fake, and the individual disappeared completely. I had sent USDT/BTC/ETH directly from my personal wallet to the addresses they provided, and my funds were gone.
After losing a significant amount of money, I felt devastated and confused. Like many other crypto scam victims, these were the questions that immediately came to my mind:
• Is it possible to trace cryptocurrency sent to scammers?
• Has anyone actually recovered funds lost to a pig-butchering or crypto investment scam?
• Are crypto recovery services or so-called “ethical hackers” legitimate, or are they also scams?
• What steps should victims take immediately after realizing they’ve been scammed to avoid further losses?
These are common questions asked by cryptocurrency scam victims across forums like Quora and Reddit. While researching and trying to understand my options, I eventually came across Infiniti Digital Recovery. Based on my personal experience, they assisted in recovering my stolen cryptocurrency without requesting any upfront payment.
I understand that crypto recovery is a sensitive topic and that many so-called recovery services are scams themselves. My intention in sharing this experience is to contribute to the discussion and help other victims understand what questions to ask, what red flags to watch for, and the importance of extreme caution when seeking recovery assistance.
If you’ve been affected by a cryptocurrency investment scam, take time to research thoroughly, avoid anyone guaranteeing results, and never send additional funds without proper verification
Crypto scams have caused immense harm worldwide, especially among older adults who deserve safety and respect. Contact Infinite Digital Recovery to initiate your recovery process.

It all happened around June 20th, 2022, just when I decided to start investing in bitcoin as it was becoming the new trend of making money, and I decided to give it a try. I contacted a guy who claimed to be a crypto trader and promised he gives high returns on investments done with him. So I sent approximately $13k in bitcoin as my investment capital. In short, he completely went off the grid and stopped replying to my messages. I was heavily frustrated because that was a huge part of the savings I had sent to him. Then I got introduced to a recovery firm (recoveryhacker101) that deals in recovering stolen crypto funds. I wasn’t able to get my full $13k back, but I got $9,557. I want to use this medium to show appreciation to RecoverHacker101 for their expert service in recovering the stolen funds I thought I had lost forever. I recommend them to anyone who has fallen victim to these petty crypto scammers. You can reach out to them via email at recoveryhacker101@gmailcom.
Stay Safe and Smart.

I have invested in crypto trading platforms for about 7yrs thinking I was ensuring myself a retirement income, only to find that all my assets were either frozen, I believed my assets were secure ? until I discovered that my BTC funds had been frozen and withdrawals were impossible. It was a devastating moment when I realized I had been scammed, and I thought my Bitcoin was gone forever, Everything changed when a close friend recommended me to RecoveryHacker101 service.
