Gather your fabric scrap collection or browse our selection of decorative fabrics and get ready to make some cute coasters! These fabric coasters are simple and add color and personality to household surfaces and tables.
You will need:
- 5 coordinating fabrics to re-create the effect. Lay out your fabrics ahead of time to see how they look together!
- Coordinating threads. You can use the same color, or add a new color for an artsy effect.
- Iron
- Mr. Singer or mad hand skills
What to do:
- Cut out five 4” squares of fabric. You are free to make them smaller or larger, this is just an example. The finished product will be 1/2” smaller than the size you cut.
- First choose the square for the bottom of the coaster and set it to the side.
- Take the other 4 squares, fold them in half and press neatly.
- Arrange the pieces as pictured, ensuring the raw edges face the exterior of the square.
- Place the bottom square over the other assembled pieces facing right-side down. Pin it into place.
- Stitch around the edge of the coaster, using your presser foot as a guide.
- There is no need to leave a gap, as you will not be stuffing it. Sew completely around all four edges.
- When finished, turn over and turn right side out.
- Press with iron until it looks crisp and neat!
- Because these are fabric, you can wash them on gentle in the event of a spill!
