Hexie Twist Coaster Set

What a fun project.  These coasters where very easy if you cut them precisely.  The pattern is by Julie Creus for 'Cut Loose Press'.  I purchased it at Quilted Treasures in Rogers, Mn.



I think they turned out pretty cute!!!

Knitting needle organizer

This amazing pattern by Terry Atkinson was exactly what I needed to keep my knitting needles together.  I've use many of her patterns before and they are always easy.

It was doable within a day for an experienced sewer and binding experience will finish this off nicely.
