Completion of Appliqué Coasters

Posted on August 20, 2013 by madewithcotton

After working hard for the past two weeks, I’ve finally completed the appliqué coasters. Yeah!

I’ve kept the design plain & simple due to time constraints, as I need to complete them in time. However, I like what I see. Simplicity is good! This is a great weekend project for busy professionals like me. Not only is it cute, it’s also pretty easy to sew!

I should be running to the post office to have them mailed out to Ginny in USA over the next 2 days. Hope she likes what I’ve made!

WIP-Appliqué Coasters Swap

Posted on August 3, 2013 by madewithcotton

I’ve started working on the appliqué coasters swap by The Quilting Gallery and things are looking good so far! Michele just linked us up with our swap partners and mine is Ginny, a great quilter from Texas, USA. Looking forward to receiving the gorgeous coasters from her!

This is a great swap to be in, cos the coaster pattern is so cute! I’ve just cut up all the appliquéd pieces and ironed them on to the background fabric using the fusible web method.

Check out the photos below! I’m targeting to finish them up in two weeks time & will update my blog as I progress.
