Quilted Coasters

Chuck has been using her paycheck stubs as makeshift coasters for her bedside water glass. I thought she should have something a little classier.

She had an extra purple velvet curtain hanging around that had a hole in it, but was otherwise useable fabric, so I cut some strips out of it and sewed these simple quilted coasters, using directions provided by the other Martha. I used contrasting thread that matches Chuck's wall color. Pretty cute and very easy!
(Yes, they are crooked and uneven. Give me a break- I'm relatively new to sewing)
