Hi there! Erin from Sewbon here to share with you a super easy sewing project.
These fabric coasters are practical, beautiful, and make for a great gift. And the best part, these can be made in less than an hour from start to finish!
Materials
- Main fabric
- Accent fabric
- HeatnBond® Fusible Fleece
- General sewing supplies
Instructions
To make four coasters, cut four 5 inch x 5 inch squares out of the main fabric, cut four 5 inch x 5 inch squares out of the accent fabric, and cut four 5 inch x 5 inch squares out of the HeatnBond® Fusible Fleece.
Attach a fusible fleece square to the wrong side of a main fabric square.
Pin the main fabric piece and the accent fabric piece right sides together and stitch around the edges of the square with a 5/8 inch seam allowance, leaving a 2 inch hole.
Clip the corners.
Turn the coaster right side out through the 2 inch hole and use a chopstick to push the corners out.
Tuck the edges from the 2 inch hole in and press the coaster.
Top stitch with a ¼ inch seam allowance around the coaster and press one last time.
Repeat for the remaining 3 coasters.

[…] Erin from Sewbon shares a tutorial over at the Therm O Web blog showing how to sew up a set of fabric coasters. They’re quick and easy to make. She puts fusible fleece in between the top and bottom layer so they have body and will absorb any condensation from a glass. You can make a set of four in less than an hour. They’d make a great hostess gift or Christmas gift for a child’s teacher. Go to Therm O Web to get the how-to. […]
