    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!!

    Speak for yourself, Puppy!



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

    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.
