All day today at work I was going crazy because I wanted to do something creative. I wanted to sew, or scrapbook, or anything... just something creative. It was probably because I was doing my most hated account of all... or because I have many Christmas crafts that I want to do right now, so I was thinking about them. I found this quick project on an old ward member's blog. So as soon as I got home I went to work on it. And when I was done I felt millions times better!
It's a coaster! Basically I just sewed the two pieces of fabric together on 3 sides, flipped it right side out, stuck some batting in there, hand sewed the 4th side, and then sewed the design with my new walking foot. (Roger is giving it to me for Christmas, but he said I could use it early.) It's not perfect, but I think it turned out pretty cute. Maybe I'll make a whole Christmas coaster set!
