Pretty and Practical?
Hi it's July already can you believe it? I've had a busy week but found a bit of time for sewing some fabric coasters. The perfect small project.

I'd been thinking of making some for a while and then last week Jenna of SewHappyGeek posted a brilliant tutorial so I gave it a go. A great way of using the countless scraps I seemed to have collected and a great way to practice a bit of quilting. They didn't need to be perfect and I could say that they are skew-whiff on purpose, just a bit of creativeness :-)

I'm not sure they will practical but they look pretty. They would make a lovely gift tied up together with a bit of pretty ribbon.
They certainly would make a lovely gift. Just the kind to present to a new lodger in fact. Mmm..!!
ReplyDeletethey are very practical, I have several and I love them!
ReplyDeleteThese are fab! I love them a lot. I'm away to look out scraps and study the tutorial.
ReplyDeletevery nice!
ReplyDeleteCool! Excellent idea for using up my scrap too.
ReplyDeleteSo very pretty! I can just see how a bundle of then would be so appreciated. Love the way you've gone for it and not worried about total regularity!
ReplyDeleteThey are so cute :-) (and they definitely look like you intended to sew them that way - they very retro and cool)
