So I was digging around in my overflowing scrap basket when I decided I needed to make something with them. I got my little Patchwork Houses book out and proceeded to make some coasters. They were not too difficult to do. The only issue was that Kody and Christian were determined to interrupt me every time I sat down at my machine.The pattern in the book was actually for a potholder so making it coaster sized was really tricky to sew with my machine. The edge kept getting stuck under the feed dogs. I have a patchwork foot I really should start using. I also have some little plastic thing that is supposed to help with sewing small pieces. I guess I need to take one of the six classes I was offered to attend when I got that machine. Do classes expire? It’s been a couple years. I will post the book I got this pattern from tomorrow for the Flickr person and anyone else that may stumble on here wanting it. Mine has an extra fabric piece on the left side because I was using scraps and the pieces I had were not big enough. It still turned out okay and my tea is resting on it now protecting my sewing table.
