How to make Coasters

If you have wood surfaces, condensation off your guests cups can leave watermarks and what better way to keep your surface nice and neat than to make your own cute, custom coasters!

Instructions:
  • 1/2 yard of fabric (or more depending on how many you want to make)
  • 1/2 yard of thick batting
  • Sewing essentials

Directions:

1. Cut out 2 squares of fabric that is 4 1/2" by 4 1/2".
2. With right sides together, sew a 1/4" seam on all sides except for a 2" inch opening in the center of one side.

3. Trim corners and seams. Flip square inside-out through the small opening. Iron down seams. Add a 4 1/4" by 4 1/4" square of batting. Sew down the very edge.
4. From one side, sew 1/4" away from the seam and continue to the right side.

Viola! A Coaster!
