These cute coasters only take minutes to make. I found this fabulous video http://www.youtube.com/user/clothworksfab and in a matter of minutes I had a finished present ready to wrap.
I decided to embellish one of the fabric pieces using Aurifil Brillo Metallic Thread and a variety of my fancy stitches on my sewing machine.
I then decided to use my ‘Christmas Red’ Aurilux and created some holiday swirls.
I have used Aurifil Ne-50wt thread in the bobbin with the Brillo AND the Aurilux. This combination makes sewing these fancy stitches tangle free!

Love them, thank you.
