Helpful Tips:
What if I don’t have fusible interfacing for my fabric coasters?
If you don’t have interfacing you can substitute it with cotton batting or felt. This will add thickness to your cloth coaster and help it absorb moisture. Since felt doesn’t adhere like fusible interfacing does, it’s best to sew your coaster together first and then insert the felt before closing the edges.
How can I cut perfect squares for fabric coasters?
Iron your fabric before cutting it to remove creases or folds. This will ensure a smooth, accurate cut. For precise cutting, use a:
Quilting ruler for accurate measurements and clean lines Rotary cutter (Olfa or Fiskars are good brands) for easy, straight cuts Self-healing cutting mat to protect your working surface
