Little scrap coasters.

I've been cutting 4" squares of scrap fabric and using them to sandwich terry fabric that I salvaged from a baby blanket William never favored.  They are fairly addictive to stitch together into coasters.  I think they make lovely hostess gifts to keep on hand--our summer calendar is filling up nicely with bbq invites and party plans.

I made a little stack to send to someone as a very belated present.  Hope she likes them!

 

ETA:  I received a couple of emails asking for a quick tutorial.  And I was going to, but then I checked out the blog of one of the commenters and discovered she's already done so!  And she's much smarter than I am because she cuts the interior batting a bit smaller...my edges can be a bit bulky so I will be using her method from now on.  I wish I had seen her post before I cut out all my squares!  Go to Motherlode and check it out.
