Thanks for the link what awesome way to make a circle

Good idea

Interesting; thanks for sharing. :o)

Thanks for sharing this idea. I use deli-papers for crazy quilt squares, so why not coffee filters for rounds. Great idea.

I love circles, thanks.

thank you for this sight. I looked at a few and got some ideas and some I had already used. Very good ideas.

Thanks i have got this one saved.

I have to wonder if the filter doesn't dissolve, or bunch up, after so many washings? Does anyone know? Same with dryer sheets...I know they bunch up after going through the dryer, twice.
Does anyone have any experience with this?

I found that on a frugal list.

If I read it correctly, it's meant to be a tear away stabilizer. Perhaps we both should check it out once again. Love the site! I am always looking for clever and organizational ideas;must visit it again.

really cool, thanks for sharing :)

Hmmmmm. I use them to filter my dehumidifier water to use in my iron. I love that idea. I have a huge pack of them for use once a year when I make coffee for Christmas; I don't drink coffee. I could quilt the world with circle scraps.

that is a great site. thanks for sharing it..
Have a fun sewing day

What a fun idea!!! I got a new coffee maker, which uses cone filters, and still have the round ones from my old one...will have to try making one this weekend!

I use used dryer sheets for my strip blocks..have had no problem in washing them..they are sewed down pretty good..will try the coffee filters for circles..

Amazing what you can learn from this board. Thanks for posting the link.

Clever idea and a great website. She has a lot of great ideas.

Genius...

Thank you! This will be today's project!!!

Wow thanks for sharing, I might make squares, I have never worked with circles.

Great....thanks for sharing...this is why I like this forum
so much.

And you can get coffee filters in so many sizes! Wonderful idea! Thanks!

Love it ... thanks for sharing.

Thank you for another GREAT idea. I think I just might be doing this!!

@junec, thanks for the link, i too will be using my scraps for this.
@nannysandy thanks for sharing your idea as well.

Thanks...what an idea..you could use 4 cup coffee filters and make round mug rugs.

Another great, non-sewing, use for coffee filters is to catch embossing powder or tiny glitters so you can pour the extra back into the bottles. Unlike the little plastic trays that are sold for this, the filter doesn't have any static to catch the powder and it all pours very nicely back into the container to be used later. Great for scrapbooking and card making! I keep a whipped topping bowl full of the smallest ones in my crafting area.

great ideal

Great idea. I have some smaller ones for 4 cup maker so that would be a good thing to use them for but all in all they are cheap so we could just buy a pack of 100 and have a blast. I use them for crafts with my GKs all the time but never thought of this.

What a great idea. Thanks for sharing your find. Even if you don't have any old coffee filters, they are inexpensive enough that you could purchase them for just this purpose.

This would be so fun, esp. with that "applique" way of doing drunkards path.

How about the large ones for candlemats with Xmas fabrics?

Kewl way 2 use up scraps!

This is terrific, you could do hot pads really easy or potholders or just use them for an unusual crazy quilt.

The circle tut was great but then I got lost in the sight. So many neat ideas. Going to add to my favorites.

Wow, what a great site. Thank you soooooo much :thumbup:

Great idea. Thanks for sharing.

wonderful site, I added it to my bookmarks. Thanks

I have used these for stabilizer for small emb. designs but love the perfect circle idea. Thanks for an eye-opener!

Wow, what a great idea. I just started paper piecing and this looks great. Cheap and easy. Just not quite sure how to handle the circles, but will probably try anyway. Thanks for the great tip!
