Criss-Cross Coasters


I wanted to share with you this cute little sewing project I stumbled on. This idea for the coasters came from Jenny over at Allsorts. She put up a step by step picture tutorial if you'd like to try your hand at making your own. I know very little about sewing, but when I found these, they looked easy enough that I thought even I might be able to pull it off.

I was quite pleased with the final product. I made some as gifts to give to friends and family at Christmas. I liked them so well, I even made a set for myself!

Okay, you've encouraged me! Your coasters look great!! I know very little about sewing too, and I really wanted to try them, but I didn't think I could. I just might give them a try.

The coasters are very nice. I really like the material you chose. I haven't sewn anything is a long time, but I think I would like to try these.

I found the link to your blog on Shereen's blog.

Hi :)
I recently received your comment on my blog about custom templates. I am NOT familiar with Blogger really to be comfortable in trying to help. I am able to help with homeschoolblogger.com and homesteadblogger.com since they have coding that I am used to using.

I have information on "No-right click" though that might work. If you can visit my "main" blog at www.TrainingHearts.com and email me directly, with a request for the no right click coding, I will be happy to email it to you!

God Bless, Training Hearts Mom
