One of my resolutions this year is to make more homemade gifts for the people I love. My sister had her birthday this last week and I was very excited to make her a present! I found a
great tutorial for making cloth coasters. I was thinking of doing an applique as they did in the tutorial but instead I found some amazing fabric with beautiful flowers. Each coaster features one of the flowers and they are in similar colors of white and blue:
Not too bad for my first homemade gift! I learned a lot about sewing an invisible seam from the outside to finish off the coaster.
Here they are all wrapped up:
There are two more birthdays in March that I am plotting and planning for :-)
I haven't forgotten about my new outfit post--I really want to take some pictures outside this time in our lovely little village....so I promise it will be soon!
Happy sewing everyone!
