Today we're on the last of our fall-themed appliquéd snack-mat sewing projects. (Although this little guy could probably work for anytime of year, I'm calling him a fall project.) Today you'll be learning how to make your own appliquéd owl snack mat / mug rug / coaster with a pocket for a napkin and cutlery (or a snack). Keep it at home to decorate your table, take it to work to make your lunchtime feel even more festive, or give it as a gift. You'll even get the directions on how to make the cute little 7" x 7" reversible cloth napkin!
For this project you will need:
- fabric scraps for the applique
- fabric for the front, back, pocket, and napkin
- cotton batting
- paper-backed fusible web like HeatnBond light
- pencil
- fabric clips or pins
- iron
- sewing machine and matching thread
- basting spray or powder
- scissors, rotary cutter, cutting mat, cutting ruler
- walking foot or free motion foot
- owl templates
