Sewing
I was looking for coasters the other day and was amazed at how expensive they can be! So I decided to make some myself...with fabric! They also make ADORABLE gifts!
Wanna make your own?! It's pretty easy!
You'll need:
✄ fabric (2 pieces 4.5” x 4.5”per coaster)
✄ felt (1 piece 4” x 4” per coaster)
✄ thread
✄ sewing machine
✄ iron
① Get your supplies! ② Align your fabric. Place the first piece of fabric right side up, the second, right side down and then the felt on top. ③ Pin together. ④ Sew through all the layers, all the way around (as close to the outer edge as possible), leaving a 2” opening (to turn inside out later on). ⑤ Clip corners. ⑥ Turn inside out and press with an iron. ⑦ Sew all the way around. I even sewed diagonally across, creating an “X”. Voilà!
