Sew felt and cotton quilt square coasters!

Sew felt and cotton quilt square coasters!

These coasters are wonderful - nice and chunky and absorbent because of the felt, and super easy to put together.

I've chosen to sew them using an overlock foot - it gives you serger quality stitches on your sewing machine. :) But you could also assemble them using a blanket stitch!
