Create a Pretty Set of Coasters from Scraps

| Instructions Are Provided for Larger Sizes Too!
Dig into your scraps for a set of beautiful jewel-toned coasters. They’ll be lovely in any color combination and pretty spots of color for a table.
Plus, instructions are provided for larger sizes as well. The medium will be a charming potholder while the large can be a trivet, snack mat, or small placemat. Just add Insul-Bright batting for heat proofing as needed.
You can even go smaller and make charming ornaments.
The coasters are constructed using paper piecing. This is a great project for learning the process. You’ll find excellent overviews to get you started with paper piecing here and here.
The designer, Jitka Clement from Jitka Design, provides instructions for the following sizes:
- Small – 5 1/2″
- Medium – 8″
- Large – 10 1/2″
- Bonus – 3″ ornament size with seam allowances.
PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest has featured many patterns from vendors participating in the Craftsy Marketplace, most of which have been deleted by Craftsy. It's going to take awhile for us to hunt down new sources for those patterns. In the meantime there are many links to patterns on our site that no longer work. We apologize if this article contains one or more of those links and appreciate your patience while we straighten things out. Thank you!
PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest does not sell or otherwise provide patterns directly. We showcase patterns and projects from various vendors, bloggers and other sources. Please make a note of where you access a pattern (the link in the yellow box toward the end of each Quilting Digest article). That way you can contact Support for that source if you have downloading problems or other issues. Thank you!
