Quick Tuesday Project
Hi all... hope everyone had a good weekend. I did, but it was very tiring, think I did waaaay too much, so I spent most of yesterday in bed. Feeling much better today.
I'm still trying to find uses for all my scrap material, and came across this one today for a reusable coffee cup sleeve. I know several people who could use one of these, and also think they might sell well at a craft fair:
The only change I made was to make my fastener out of elastic rather than a hair elastic band.. when I tried that, it broke the needle on my sewing machine! So I switched to elastic and it worked much better for me. I found several patterns for these, but I liked this one as it used cotton batting between the layers of fabric, which I think will be much better for hot drinks.
Mr. S. will be home from work soon, so better go start dinner. Have a nice evening all!

You need to open a shop on etsy.com! These are cute and I definitely would buy some. Can I put an order in now? ;)
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you're doing better - it takes time, so be patient!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great way of using scrap materials and the heart shaped button looks perfect with that pattern ;-) Great job!
