Monday, May 9, 2011 Pop Flower Coaster Tutorial with Jess

I hope you all had a wonderful Mother's Day. I got spoiled with brekky in bed, hand picked pressies from the kids, and fabric gift vouchers from my Bec hubby. And even though Mother's Day has become bitter sweet, I had a lovely day spending time with Central Coast, Australia those I love. I'm obsessed!! From Fabrics, Another thing I Love about Mother's day is handmade cards and gifts... When Jess from Twin sent to designing, to sewing, to machine quilting and then to me through her Raw Edge Applique tutorial for today.. I was so disappointed I didnt get it to make some the relaxing...... sit back, feet up - hand a week ago!! They are just so gorgeous!! Thank You Jess! xx quilting! Thanks for stopping by.. xx View my complete profile

Would you like to make these cute coasters with me? Today I'm going to show you how! These are a great little project for introducing you to raw edge applique. Let's get started:

Advertise Here?

First you're going to need some supplies. For each coaster you will need: some fabric scraps for the flower and leaves a 5.5" square each of a solid fabric for the front and a backing fabric Följare (1819) Nästa a 5" square of batting (not pictured) and a double sided fusible web product (I'm using Lite Steam-a-Seam). There are several fusible webbing products on the market, just make sure to read the directions on the package if you are using something different. You'll also need to print off the templates below or draw your own.

1. Trace your pattern pieces onto a sheet of the Steam-a-Seam. Trace onto the paper that seems more stuck to the fusible web. (One side of the paper on the webbing wants to come off easily and the other side is stuck on more.) Also, make sure you are tracing the reverse image of what you want cut out (not important with this project, but it is if you want to cut out letters from the alphabet). Roughly cut your shapes out.

2. Remove the paper from the Steam-a-Seam that you don't have your shape drawn on. Press your shape onto the backside of your fabric scraps.

Cut your shapes out along the pattern lines.

4. Now, you're going to start stitching around each of your shapes. I like to use a decorative stitch that's programmed into my machine, but you can use a small zig-zag too. ► 2014 (2) ► 2013 (2) ► 2012 (21) ▼ 2011 (95) ► December (1) ► November (2) ► October (2) ► September (8) ► August (8) ► July (10) ► June (12) ▼ May (11) A Quilt for Elle..

These flower shapes came from a wall hanging that I made for a swap. I really loved the screen that I saw here and Sew Inspired translated that into a wall hanging and now into these coasters.
