I’m continuing my Fall Projects theme in hopes that Fall will find us soon in ATX.
Also, I will be focusing on one theme during the entire month of October.
Every day I will be talking about the In’s and Out’s of one subject.
But, today I’m giving you one last tutorial for the road.
So, pull out your scraps and let’s get started. No need to break the bank on this project.
Supplies:
- 1/2 Yard of an Orangey Fall-colored fabric {or fat quarter}
- 1/2 Yard of a Brownish Fall-colored fabric {or fat quarter}
- 1/4 Yard of Quilt Batting
- Thread
Step 1: Download and print the Adorable Acorn template. Trim the design.
Step 2: Out of the orangey fabric cut out 2 acorn bottoms.
Out of the browish fabric cut 2 acorn tops.
Out of the batting cut out 1 acorn top and 1 acorn bottom.
Step 3: Place acorn bottoms right side together. Then lay the batting against the wrong side of one of the acorn bottoms.
Step 4: Using a 1/4” seam allowance, stitch sides together and leave the top open for turning.
Turn acorn bottom right side out and press. Set aside.
Step 5: In order for the acorn top batting to fit better you will need to trim off the stem at the top and trim away 1/4” from the bottom.
Step 6: Using the same method from Step 3, place acorn tops right sides together. Then lay the batting against one of the wrong sides of the acorn tops.
The batting will be 1/4” shorter. This is where you will begin the stitching. Stitch the sides and top, but leave the bottom open for turning.
Step 7: Turn acorn top right side out. Press under the raw edges on the bottom.
Place the acorn top over the acorn bottom. Pin to hold.
Wasn’t that fun and easy! Now repeat until you have whole house full of acorn coasters.
