Jessica Jones is a graphic and textile designer and hosts “How About Orange”! Today she has two projects for us to try. One is a How-To: Modular Felt coaster and the other is a How-To: Modular Felt Trivet. She has two wonderful tutorials and downloadable pattern. No sewing or gluing required. Connect as many pieces as you like to make bigger projects, too–placemats, a runner, or sew two pieces together for a pillow cover. Just think of the combinations of colors you can use for yourself or a gift. Thanks Jessica for the charming projects. You can follow “How About Orange” on Facebook.
