This weekend was a slow finish week. I made a Heather Bailey pin cushion that became a princess pillow and this super easy coffee cozy. The rest of the week we spent doing lots of family activities, as you can tell from the last few blog posts.
I made this for my husband to do his studying at the S'Bucks. The cardboard was too boring. I traced the corrugated cardboard and sewed on the line. Trimmed it and turned it right side out. I edgestitched it for simplicity. Easy or what? Like the manly fabric?
I will admit, I tested it out to see if one layer of cotton batting was going to work. It did. But remember people, coffee is hot, OK?
So go visit Sew and Tell. There are more talented and crafty people than me out there.
Way to put family first! Yay for you!!!!
