Free Friday: Maple Leaf Coasters

Happy Friday, everyone!  How did your week go?  Mine has been kind of rough.  First I was sick, then my hubs was sick, so it's been hard getting anything done around here.  That's why there wasn't a Tuesday Tip this week, in case you were wondering.  I hope to have one up next week!

So the free pattern this week is the for the coasters to my new Maple Leaf Kitchen Set:

I really like this pattern.  Actually, I like it so much that I kept it for my own kitchen!  That's all my tea and coffee and stevia in the caddies, lol.  The coasters are a really nice addition to this set, but they look nice all by themselves too! 

Maple Leaf Coasters


Skill Level:

Beginner

Size:

3 ½ x 3 ½ inches


Materials:

  • 1 sheet 7-count plastic canvas
  • Red Heart yarn in colors listed in key
  • #16 plastic canvas needle
  • White Craft Felt
  • Craft Glue

Instructions:

  1. Cut and stitch plastic canvas according to graphs.
  2. Overcast the outside edges with Cafe Latte.
  3. Using coasters as a template, cut out four squares of white craft felt. Trim off 1/8 of an inch on all pieces. Attach to backs of coasters using craft glue.

If you like these coasters, I would be so grateful if you purchased the whole pattern from my Etsy shop.  

Well, I hope you have a good weekend!  Are you going shopping?  Or maybe getting some baking or wrapping done?  Hubs and I are staying in this weekend.  There's a pretty big snow storm coming this way with predictions of 2 feet of snow in the snow belt areas (we'll probably see about 8 inches, but that's still a good amount!).  I plan on staying all bundled up on the couch all weekend!

  1. Cute pattern! The arthritis in my hands keeps me from doing things like this but I love looking! I really need to go shopping this weekend and finish baking. I am behind this year which is new for me and I don't like it!! Happy weekend!

    1. Thank you for the compliment! I'm sorry your arthritis keeps you from doing needlepoint, but it sure doesn't keep you from making super cool decorations :) Have fun shopping and baking!
