T Stands For Coasters

 

At 3:52 p.m my time today, one comment was published.  I was overjoyed.  However, that joy was quickly dashed when, after publishing this post, I couldn't get another comment in the queue to publish.  When I tried to reinstall Firefox, I got the message that Firefox is up to date, and it wouldn't let me reinstall it.  I am once again sorry, but I seem to STILL be unable to publish my comments.

Welcome to another edition of T Stands For Tuesday.

Now it's time to recycle some felt.

I have several pieces of felt that were left over from previous projects.  Some of the pieces are quite small.

Using various objects to draw circles around, I cut five circles.

I cut two of the largest circle because the black circle is the one that will sit on a table.

I stacked the circles on top of each other and tried to match the center lines as equally as possible.

Did you think I would miss an opportunity to create something with my wonky sewing?  I began in the center and worked my way around the smallest circle.

Then I worked my way outward.

I used different variegated thread on the two sides.

It was time to see if this prototype design would work from a functional standpoint.

It seems to work fine with a cup

and a mug, too.  This is day 18 of 22 leading up to bEARTHday and I recycled bits and pieces of felt left over from other projects.

Now it's your turn.  The rules are extremely simple.  Your drink related post may be anything from a photo of a glass, cup, or mug, to an actual drink.  You may choose to share a sketch or a digital, hybrid, or traditional page in your scrapbook, art journal, or altered book.  Maybe you'd prefer to share a tag, or wow us with your photography.  You might choose a postcard or decorated card.  Or perhaps you prefer to review a place you visited, a movie, or book.  It makes no difference as long as it's drink related.  And don't forget that the more unique and outside the box it is, the better we like it.  Please tie it back here, and please link only to your T post, not your entire blog.  When you link, Bleubeard, the T gang, and I will be by to visit.   Bleubeard would also like to remind you that your photos may be taken any time, even months ago, if you choose.

 

This post was originally published in April, 2017.  For 2026, this is Day 21 of 22 leading up to bEARTHday.  Thank you for visiting today.  Your continued support has kept me going and I am extremely grateful.  Bleubeard is, too.
