Create Fun Coasters from Small Quilt Blocks
Sawtooth Stars Are Great for This Project!
Small quilt blocks are perfect for coasters, whether you’re starting from scratch or with orphan blocks. In this case, cute Sawtooth Star blocks are made up in fun fabrics for a charming set of summer coasters or mug rugs.
This block gives you a chance to show off an interesting motif in the center, such as the campers used here.
It’s easy to imagine coasters made for any season and with many different color themes and fabric styles.
In fact, this is a great project for precious scraps from fabrics you love. Have fun going through your stash as you design your own version.
Diary of a Quilter provides a tutorial created by Stephanie from Swoodson Says. While it’s specifically for Sawtooth Star blocks, it will also work with any small block.
First, you’ll need instructions for the 5″ Sawtooth Star block from Diary of a Quilter. You’ll find those here.
