Do you ever feel the need, upon acquiring new furniture, to make something to use with it so it becomes part of your space? Might just be something I do.
Either way, the house has a new side table, so I decided to make a coaster to use on the table.
Of course, I used some of my blue fabric scraps.
I wanted to have a ‘lighter’ side and a ‘darker’ side, to make maximum use of a variety of scraps.
As a result, the light side looks quite bold with the navy binding.
The idea is to use the coaster to hold cups of tea when I’m sitting in the chair beside it.
I have also used it for scissors, though, so it’s versatile.
It is a little small for the base of the mug I usually use; I didn’t accomodate for the width of the binding when I was cutting out my squares. It still works, though, and I’m still happy with it.
Anyways, see ya!
