These cute coasters only take minutes to make. I found this fabulous video http://www.youtube.com/user/clothworksfab and in a matter of minutes I had a finished present ready to wrap.
I decided to embellish one of the fabric pieces using Aurifil Brillo Metallic Thread and a variety of my fancy stitches on my sewing machine.
I then decided to use my ‘Christmas Red’ Aurilux and created some holiday swirls.
I have used Aurifil Ne-50wt thread in the bobbin with the Brillo AND the Aurilux. This combination makes sewing these fancy stitches tangle free!
If you had fun making these coasters, you might enjoy using the embroidery stitches on your machine to transform a plain cotton sheet set into a special gift.

Love them, thank you.
