Scrappy Quilted Coasters Tutorial

This project is for all you quilters/sewists who love scrap busting. It’s a coasters tutorial and it comes to us from Sew What Alicia. Even better, there is no set pattern. Just some fun sewing to help get rid of some scraps in a useful way.

You will need standard quilt-making supplies plus some fusible fleece to make these. Alicia’s instructions are easy to follow and her photos are crisp and beautiful. You can make up a set of these in absolutely no time.

I have a feeling that I will be making a lot of these for the holidays. Wouldn’t they make a perfect little stocking stuffer for someone? Maybe a hostess gift when you head off to one of the many parties you may be going to around the holidays.

Whatever reason you need, these coasters are a great little project to make.

If you’re anything like me and addicted to the Elm Creek Quilts series, “The Christmas Boutique” by Jennifer Chiaverini is a must-read for the holiday season. As the 21st book in this captivating series, it seamlessly blends tradition, community, and the magic of Christmas into a heartwarming tale that’s impossible to put down.

From the moment I opened the pages of “The Christmas Boutique,” I was transported into a world filled with twinkling lights, festive decorations, and the comforting aroma of freshly baked goods. Jennifer Chiaverini expertly captures the essence of the holiday season, enveloping readers in a warm and inviting atmosphere that feels like coming home.

One of the things I love most about the Elm Creek Quilts series is the richly drawn characters, and “The Christmas Boutique” is no exception. From Sylvia’s unwavering determination to Sarah’s endearing worries as a first-time mother, each character feels like a dear friend whose joys and struggles I’ve shared throughout the series.

As the Elm Creek Quilters come together to save the Christmas Boutique fundraiser, they reflect on their favorite quilts, each one a tapestry of memories woven from holidays past. Jennifer Chiaverini skillfully intertwines these stories, drawing readers deeper into the lives of these beloved characters and reminding us of the power of community and tradition.

Reading “The Christmas Boutique” felt like reconnecting with old friends and being enveloped in the warmth of their camaraderie and shared experiences. With its heartfelt narrative and timeless themes, this book is not just a story – it’s a journey of joy, hope, and the true meaning of Christmas.
