I've decided to make fabric coasters for sale.
I've chosen to use linen/cotton fabric. Generally, the outer layers are linen and I have put cotton flannel in the center.
The outer layer is cut to 5 inches square and the flannel layer is cut at 4 inches square.
I sew the flannel to the front piece with a wide seam then sew the 2 outer layers together with a narrower seam leaving a space to turn them out.
I trim the corners to remove fabric bulk in the corners. I turn them right side out. Press them flat making sure that the opening slot is well pressed.
I sew a seam really close to the edge all the way around closing the slot at the same time.
This is 11 sets of 2. I am halfway to where I wanted to be. I have several other colors to make up yet.
Really happy with this day's work.
I am also working on packaging and how I will display them for sale.
