Pattern Description
patchwork design teapot trivet and coasters

Which view and size did you make?
I made the teacup coasters

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
No

If not, why?
I sewed my pieces in strips instead of blocks. I also quilted the strips before adding the backing.

Were the instructions easy to follow?
Yes, very easy

If not, why?
--

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
They ended up very cute but I found them a bit on the small side so fiddly to turn and topstitch. There wasn't enough room in the bottom to leave a space open for turning. I basically had to leave the entire bottom open for turning and I felt that leaves the end product a bit messy looking.

Fabric used
scraps of quilting cotton, cotton batting, corduroy for back

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made or would recommend
I was inspired by this version.

Would you sew this pattern again?
Yes but I would enlarge it slighty

Would you recommend this pattern to others?
Yes

Any additional comments
I think the seam allowance should be mentioned at the very beginning of the pattern.
