Criss Cross Coasters, using a charm pack .. each coaster takes 6 x 5" squares - or you could make them any size you like. This is my first set.
They are really sweet and very easy to make. I suggest using a "walking foot" on your sewing machine, if you have one, it makes it easier to sew through the thicknesses. I am going to try them in Christmas fabric next. However in the meantime, I used a twist on the pattern, and folded the fabric into triangles and used the same principle to sew. An entirely different look.
Two lovely sets of coasters to put away for gifts.
