I didn't know what to do with my trial samples so made coasters out of them with other coaster designs.

That will work. I have a few pieces I thought I would do this to.

They are all very pretty, well done!

Thanks for all the nice comments, yes the middle one is cross-stitch.

Great idea! I was thinking about putting my in a quilt, but I like these coasters better.

Great use of sample and I have a basket full. Thanks for this idea

Good idea

nice!

I have a friend who did all his trials on plain, cheap muslin, then stitched them together in themes for a frontispiece across the mantel for various rooms in his house. Christmas, spring, summer, fall, patriotic, floral.... They were awesome. (I would personally separate out RW and full color designs as I think each detracts from the beauty of the other.)

Good way of using them up and they all look great. Love Chris

a veyr nice idea, good job ~hugs~

What fun! I think this is a perfect way to sue samples. Well done

That's a really good idea . The samples are also too good to lie in a drawer where nobody can see them:-)

That's a great idea, they turned out great!

Great idea to use for coasters. Good job/Lillian

Awesome work hugs and is the middle one cross stitch??hugs
