Fabulous Felt

Woohoo!! It's my first Papertrey Ink Blog Hop!


I was inspired by Dawn McVey's coffe cozy but I only like the coffee I make and only drink it at home usually.  Thus, no need for a coffee cozy.  However, I've been known to drink an occasional twisted tea here and there.  Those bottles will freeze your hands holding onto them, and the dirty old cozy's my hubster has are just that.... dirty and old.  So here's my version, a cute stylish way to keep my drink cold and my hands warm.

Check it out.


I used the dirty old cozy for my pattern and simply traced and cut it out.  Added the scallops and sewed it together, flipped it and decorated.  Voila!

Supplies:
PTI felt:  True Black, Hawaiian Shores, vintage Cream and Simply chartreuse
Dies:  Small Scallop, Mat stack 2, Delightful Dahlia (leaves) Beautiful Blooms.
Other:  Black and plum pudding buttons, sewing machine
