This would be a good ribbon for our quilt show coming up. We have made many coasters like this.
Layer a square wrong side up that will be the inside, the batt, and then what will be the bottom right side up. Lay the four triangles on, tucking the last one under the first one. Then we sew all around through all the layers. Turn it right side out and poke out the corners.
Sometimes we folded the 5 inch squares in half and put them on like that. And a few times I sewed the outside like an octagon. Those were really cute, but smaller.
You slip your stemmed wine glass into the center under all the folds, or use it as a coaster.
I would like to know a little more about the center. It's hard to see what is there and how you did it.
