I love making mug rugs and coasters, so when Carla from Creatin' in the Sticks announced this blog hop, I knew I had to jump right in. Thanks Carla.
I knew right away I want to make a couple of record coasters. So I grabbed 3 sizes of circle die cuts from Crafter's Edge and cut perfect circles quickly. I love the circle dies the best because they do cut perfect circles every time!

| I made a second record mug rug. |

| These were fun and easy to make. |
 |
| Next I used my Crafter's Edge Hexagon die cut to make this double-sided coaster. This side shows yummy raspberries. |
 |
| The flip side is oranges. I added a heavyweight interfacing inside the coaster for stability. I stitched the 2 sides together by hand. |

I used the Crossover II die cut machine from Crafter's Edge and the Circles and Hexagon die cuts to create these mug rugs and coaster.

Beautiful blog
ReplyDeleteOnce again the circle die is so amazing and useful. It is by far my favorite! Great coasters!
ReplyDeleteSuch a great use of your tools. Those record mug rugs are so cute, Daryl. I can think of several people I could make those for. Thank you for the inspiration and for joining No Ring November!
ReplyDeleteI adore these. the record coasters are perfect. have perfect circles really adds to the realism of the coaster. What an inspiration to stamp the words on the fabric, that is very cleaver. who doesn't enjoy fruit coasters you can match your drink to your costar. great job all around.

ReplyDeleteOh the record mug rugs are awesome! What a great idea.
ReplyDeleteHow cute are those records????? I love them! You are so creative with your stamping the words on the label, too. I am not a huge fan of hexi's because of all the hand stitching, but one big single one, now you're talking! LOL!! Thanks for the double dose of inspiration this morning!

ReplyDeleteLove your design choices. The records are wonderful and a tad nostalgic and the fruit Hexi's are so bright and cheery.
ReplyDeleteFun idea to make record coasters. I like the hexagon shapes too.
