When it comes to my go-to sewing projects, my default tends to be blankets, placemats, runners, etc... One of my goals going into 2016 is to branch out and try making some different sewn projects. One of these was experimenting with a set of oversized coasters for Mom. They actually turned out not too badly as a first experiment without a pattern, and came out more evenly sized than the pic shows, with ruffled edges and a colorful palate. In retrospect, I should have trimmed the centre where the pieces come together-- it is a bit raised, and with a flat bottomed cup, they don't always sit flat. But luckily the coasters are oversized, so hasn't proved to be too much of an issue in practice. (December 2015)
