    I just ran across this pattern today for the acorn coasters. I can’t seem to be able to download the pattern. I am really interested in making some of these, however the site that the link takes me to has me sign up, but IF I did get it downloaded, I sure can not figure up how to view the pattern or even print it out to use. Please email me the pattern so I can make these adorable coasters.

    Thank you.

    These acorn coasters would make cute gifts. I bet I could use extra batting and use them as potholders too. You could also make a smaller one and decorate a tea towel. Then you’d have a whole set of acorn kitchen decor. Adorable pattern. I’m going to pin this one on Pinterest.
