coaster #7: scrappy flower 2

well it was on my mind since yesterday to make another scrappy flower coaster using better colors/fabric. and--unlike yesterday's blue--i outlined the parts with black thread. big improvement. i really really like making these...i might not be able to stop myself.

and i know what you're saying: "yesterday's coaster wasn't so good looking but, sue, it WORKED! 

ok. lets GO THERE!

i have about five fruit punch gatorades left over from when i saw the intestinal guy. he thought i wasn't absorbing fluids so well. i know, why bring that up here? 

you're right. i just wanted to explain why i have gatorade.

it works!

coaster #6: scrappy flower

i can see where my color/fabric selection could have been better--the green leaves are lost against the green background-- but it was so much fun making coaster #6 and i'm excited to make more like this. i found them at the jolly bee. she  started off using a tutorial over at chasing cottons. but jolly bee made them wonderfully scrappy and outlined everything in black thread (where i used blue) as she saw in a book called "Scandinavian Stitches".

i agree with you, jolly bee. these are the happiest coasters ever.

but, you didn't mention--do they work??

this sunkist beverage...very tasty.

ok! they are happy and....they work!
