More red coasters for Chinese Lunar New Year

I used some fabric scraps from my stash to make these four coasters. These patchwork coasters were made using paper piecing technique. I think this techique is wonderful since even very small pieces of fabric scraps would not be wasted. Isn't it eco- friendly to make the full use of them ?
In Chinese culture, the round shape symbolizes reunion and success.The colour of red symbolizes good luck, prosperity, happiness and wealth. I hope these coasters will bring warm and happy feelings for my visitors in this New Year celebration.

I have an idea. After Chinese New Year, I will attach zippers to the coasters. I would like to turn them into two colourful round pouches . ^0^.

I am back

I was too busy with my work for the past few months and could not spare time on blogging.

Heavy workload sometimes really drives me crazy. Luckily my passion for sewing always helps to erase the stress and tension that exist in my life. I found myself living in peace and content as long as I can sit down to sew , may it be just a few stiches.

I did not come out with much stuffs for the past few months, but every small project or stuff make me smile.
