How to make Harvest Raggedy
Quilted
Coasters
These adorable country prim autumn
harvest raggedy quilted coasters are very easy to make. They are decorative,
serve a purpose, and make a great house warming gift.
|
|
For this project you will need: fabric,
quilt batting, and basic sewing needs. |
|
 |
First cut 8 squares of fabric measuring 6 1/2" X 6
1/2". Then cut 4 squares of quilt batting measuring 4 1/2" X 4
1/2". Cotton Homespun fabrics make the best raggedy
coasters. |
|
 |
Place the quilt batting in-between 2 fabric squares as
shown in the photo. Do this to all the fabric squares. You should
have 4 of these. |
|
 |
Sew from one corner to the opposite corners diagonally
as shown in the photo. |
|
 |
Now, making an "X" by sewing from the other side of the
coaster diagonally to the other opposite side so that each coaster has an "X" sewn
through it as shown in the photo. Sew a 1" border around the
outside square of each coaster. (This helps prevent the ragging from
passing this stitching line) |
|
 |
Cut slits around the whole outside of each of your
coasters. Be careful not to cut in the stitching. The smaller the
slits, the more raggedy your coaster will be. Wash your coasters in cold
water. Dry your coasters in the dryer. |
|
 |
Your awesome raggedy coasters are done. For a more
harvest effect, add some raffia and an Autumn Greetings tag. Now
your coasters are ready to give as a gift!!! |
