Scallops Coaster

Scallops Coaster

Designed By Julie A. Bolduc

This pretty coaster can also be used as a motif with a chain stitch type of joining technique. Perhaps in the future, I will create a large doily using this pattern for the motifs. You can make it bigger by using cotton yarn instead for a large chunky coaster.

Random Quick Tip!

What to do With Snowflakes
Snowflakes and other thread motifs make wonderful appliques for shirts, tablecoths, pillows, quilts, napkins and more! This takes time but all you need to do is position the motif where you want it to be and with matching sewing thread, tack them down using very small stitches about 1/4" apart. There is another way of doing this as well and that is using Ok to Wash it glue from Aleene's. Just brush the glue on the back side of the motif and position it where you want it to be. When it is dry, just tack it down around the outer edges for added security. Imagine a bunch of white snowflakes appliqued to a sky blue tablecoth!
