Fabric coasters in three styles to make for little gifts

I love coasters, and this time of year I especially love fabric ones that absorb condensation so much better than wood or other materials.  I have made a number of fabric coasters, most from this pattern that is so easy.  The Coca-Cola ones above are only a few of the ones I've made.

The pattern I'm sharing today, by Amy at Positively Splendid, is so versatile as it can be made in three different shapes: circle, square, and geometric.  

This looks so simple, yet by varying the fabrics and shapes one can make a lovely variety of coasters.  It's a free download from Positively Splendid, which is even nicer.  

Have fun with this idea!  Coasters can be paired with a gift of coffee, tea, hot cocoa or any other beverage to make a wonderful hostess gift or neighbor gift.

  1. What a fun idea!! Now if I could just get my sewing maching to work again, I could do some of these projects! It needs to be taken to a repair shop, but that is easier said than done. I just don't do enough sewing to think of it...I'd probably be better off to just get a new machine! I love the coasters! Thank you for sharing them with us.
