Coaster Tutorial

2008-04-01T14:56:00.000-07:00

To make each coaster you will need 2- 5" squares of fabric. I used squares from my Moda Charm Pack.

Step one- Take 2 squares. Put the right sides of the fabric together. Sew around 3 of the sides at 1/4 of an inch

Step two-clip the corners of the fabric close to the stitching.

Step three- Turn the coaster right side out, and press the seams flat.

Step four- Take the pin, and the pin cushion away from the baby!

Step five- Turn open end in 1/4 inch (top and bottom) and press.Step six- Top stitch about 1/8" from the edge. Top stitch again at 1/4". Your coaster is finished!
