Thank you so much for the instructions QuiltE. I plan to make some coasters for my wine drinking son and daughter, and some pot holders for my other daughter. Will be a while though, as I am getting ready to move next month. Thank you again.

You're Welcome!!
To try the pattern ... make a set of both for yourself first.
Sure would be a nice gift to have ready for yourself for your new home.

After all ... Mom needs to take care of Mom FIRST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Why wait ... start now ... and take a break from the packing!! :D

Awesome!! Great re-purposing of an orphan block!!
Nice try making us think that second one wasn't your personal wine glass ... your secret is out :)

:D Speak for yourself, Puppy! :D



Before I made it, I wasn't sure about the "pockets" for the hand ... but it works splendidly!

Excellent idea, and excellent twist! I may have to dig out a few more orphans...

Should be good for your purpose ... practicality and price-point perfect!
And to boot, work up quickly, without a lot of expense for you.
Likewise the wine glass cozeys! :)

Good thinking! As I am packing, I will pick out the fabric, and take a break. Thanks again.
