Old shirts or leftover fabric make great coasters. Braid strips of 1 1/2 inch strips of fabric and tie several together if you want larger coasters. Take the braided strips and lay them next to each other creating circles. As you wind the braided strips, stitch them with similar colored thread and needle by hand. They make great coasters and can be washed. I also do red and green ones for Christmas.
