I made the mistake of looking through the flickr pool of the coaster swap I joined and I really wish I hadn’t! My carefully chosen fabrics suddenly seemed uninspired and dull. So I spent the last few days making these:
log cabin coasters
I had never tried making a log cabin patchwork before and enjoyed choosing the fabrics and sewing them together. I was feeling proud of my effort until I washed them and they fell apart… I’m not sure what happened but I’m glad I did wash them before sending them off to my swap partner. I’ll be taking them to my mum’s in a few weeks for a post mortem.
