A new coaster project

Hello, everyone.

At the time I ordered the flowery bull pattern, I also ordered a little flower border. It may or may not become a border on a shirt--but it has certainly become a coaster design. I started with the method in the Sew4Home coaster project, only this time used the new border design.


At the bottom of the color change sheet is a thumbnail of the border the way it was imagined by the designer. (Appears to have been sewn out on ivory colored fabric.)


As iwth the Sew4Home project, the rectangular border bit was copied until there were four and the four were manipulated to become a hollow square.


At the end of the sewing, having accidentally cut a bit too narrow at the turning opening, I deployed basting tape to hold the opening closed for the edge stitching.


Finished. And there is still enough of the navy blue linen to make one more: a pair!

(Linen from stash, threads from stash on hand)
