Patchwork pumpkin coaster - Sew your scrap fabrics

If you are looking for a fun way to add harvest charm to your home, check out my new pattern to create a set of cozy Pumpkin Patch Mugrugs. Featuring two unique pumpkin designs and a classic sawtooth star pattern, they are perfect for autumn celebrations. I love the classic vibe of these mugrugs and they can be constructed in fabrics to coordinate with your decor. The sawtooth star is created using beginner friendly foundation paper piecing template which ensures accuracy.

Holiday Ornament

Fabric

Folded Hexagon Ornament: Sew Holiday ornament from your stash

Made from a fabric hexagon, they are folded, secured with a few stitches, and then finished off with a button. I used a hexagon with 6 inch sides. This resulted in an ornament sized at 2 inches from tip to opposite tip, with sides measuring 1.5 inches. You can make them in any size you wish. Once you have mastered the folding technique, they can be quickly and easily made in around 5-10 minutes.
