Project Update - Coasters
Sep. 1st, 2004 11:39 amTitle: Coasters for Kiki
Inspiration: http://www.upliftingarts.com/create/coasters.htm
Reason: Kiki's birthday (8/30) - with new furniture in a new house she needed some coasters!
Comments: I had some left over blues (her favorite color) from some quilting projects so I was excited to finally have a use for them. I was debating on whether or not to "quilt" them with a stitched design on top of the color blocking. I tried it out and I didn't like it at all - it competed with the color blocking too much. So the down side is this: if/when she washes them, they will most likely get a little distorted, but they should flatten out pretty quick with a full beverage. This project was fast and easy...hopefully she'll approve of them.
