You Will Need (4 things)

  • thin & thick Felt in different colours
  • Needle & Thread
  • Glue
  • Scissors

Steps (7 steps, 300 minutes)

  1. 1

    Start with the base for the coaster, it's made of thick felt (mine is white) and the diameter is 8,5 cm.

  2. 2

    Then you cut out another circle with the same measurements, in the colour of the wanted fruit (orange for orange, yellow for lemon, etc. ...).

  3. 3

    Cut out another circle (diameter: ~7cm) out of white felt (!).
    Then handsew it onto the (e.g.) orange one from step 2. Right in the middle.

  4. 4

    Now cut out triangles (mine were 2,5cm from peak to 'bottom'), seven pieces in the colour of the felt from step 2.

  5. 5

    Sew the triangles on the base from step 2+3.

  6. 6

    Now take the whole top and handsew it on the very base from step 1! On the white back, it should look like this now

  7. 7

    Now put some glue between the gap of (e.g.) orange and thick white felt on the edges.
