I decided my table mats needed some company, so I made these coasters/mug mats to go with them...they have a CD sewn inside so are quite sturdy...I am quite pleased with the results...

These are lovely! Do you have instructions on how to put in the CD? Avis

The CD is put in during the construction all done in the hoop...

I'm trying to imagine how close your fingers must get to the needle. Do you find a tool useful to keep the CD from moving? I would like ideas on safety, i guess I'm a clutz at times and am quite a bleeder!

I use double stick tape to hold the cd in place when I make these. I've never had it miss but I worry every time!!!
by sbott54 15 Nov 2015
Simple solution. Why didnt i think of that Thanks. My fingers appreciate it. Lol

Very beautiful and well thought. It is a good idea for Christmas. What sort of fabric did you used? Thank you very much for sharing. Amitiés de France.

I have used washable felt on both sides and a layer in the middle with the CD...so three layers of felt...

You did a beautiful job digitizing it. I was wondering about the coaster using the cd.. Could I use an ITH coaster that I already have and just add the cd or do you have a web site to purchase the ITH coaster cd instructions?

Thank you for your kind words...as far as the CD...you would need a digitized to fit the CD...if you digitize, it is not difficult to do.

Oh, alright thank you. However I don't digitize.

Gorgeous! Yes, when coasters look this good they can be gorgeous.-lol

I really like these and just happen to have a few un-useable dvd's. I may give it a shot. Thanks
