At our last Sew Fresh meeting, Susanna and I demo-ed how to make those super cute coffee cozies that are perfect for Christmas gifts & stocking stuffers. Today, I've got the detailed tutorial for you!
Supplies List:
-A cardboard coffee cozy from your local coffee shop or Starbucks
-1/8 yard of fabric (try one of our cute Christmas prints!)
-1/8 yard of wool-blend felt
-1 button (the Riley Blake buttons are so cute!)
-A piece of elastic (we used this Riley Blake elastic ribbon!)
Stack your felt & fabric and cut using the coffee cozy as a pattern. Leave an extra 1/4"-1/2" on the top and bottom (as pictured below).
Place the fabric & felt right sides together and sew around three of the four edges. Leave one side open and turn right sides out. Tuck the fabric under to hide the raw edges on the side that was left open for turning and press.
Make a loop with your elastic and place the ends in the center of your open end. Pin in place and top stitch over the fabric, elastic, and felt.
On the other end of your coffee cozy, hand sew your button on.
Wrap it around your hot (or cold!) drink & you're good to go!
Isn't this a fun & easy project to get you in the Christmas spirit?!
Happy Crafting,
