Make Pretty Coasters and More from Hexie Hearts
A Great Project for Scraps, and for Gifts!
Pretty little hearts adorn the centers of these hexagon coasters. The hearts are cut out so that underlying fabrics show through, rather than being appliqued on top as you might expect.
This is a simple project and the hexies can be used for other projects as well. Stitch some to a tote, sew several together for a table topper, or include them in a quilt project.
You might also consider changing the heart to another shape. Or, enlarge the pattern for pot holders and more. This pattern and the technique are very versatile so have fun with them!
It’s also a wonderful project for scraps. Choose a nice combination for your coaster set, making them all the same or coordinating fabric styles and colors to form a set.
Each hexagon, from the tutorial at Cosmo Cricket, is about 4″ across the flat sides.
