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!

I love it, I'll have to buy myself a new foot for my machine. I had been just using my regular foot for this, which is a complicated maneuver. :) It never struck me to get an overlock foot.

My new machine came with one, and I think I'm in love!
