I've made these before as well. They're so easy and cute! Yours look great!

And how do you get them to look like x's instead of 4 patches? I'm just a newbie.

OMG I'm so glad I'm not alone - maybe we could be dumb and dumber, LOL just joking

Is the iron on fusible web really necessary? Do you use the warm and natural instead?

I used neither but slipped a piece of soft plastic inside. Then to wash them you can take it out

I found that site a while ago and have made four sets. I love them.

I recently made a few sets of these to sell at our exhibition here in Spain. They sold like hot cakes! I found a different tutorial which called the ones made on the diagonal "Glass slippers". You can pop the stem of a wine glass inside so that the glass is permanently connected to its coaster. Brilliant for parties, particularly if you make each with different fabrics so that each person recognises their own drink. I just use scraps of batting. They absorb any moisture when you have ice in a drink and are completely washable.
