It’s amazing how the varied color combinations make them each look so different, don’t you think?
I was going to set my cup of tea on one for a visual of their use, but it didn’t work out. I ran out of time.
For anyone that’s interested, here’s the pattern. WARNING: there may be mistakes lurking. Tat at your own risk.

Well, yes, they do look different from each other, but they still coordinate very nicely. π
I do like how they all look different. Great job!
Your coasters turned out great! I really like how the color combinations give each one a different look. Thanks for sharing the pattern too. Now I can try! π
Very nice! I like them attached to the denim – seems more 'modern' or something. Did you do anything special to the denim before you added the tatting? Your daughter will love them!
Thanks, LadyShuttleMaker.
Thanks, TattingChic, they do look good together.
Thanks, Cindy. No, I just washed an old pair of my husband's that needed lots of repair.
Thanks, Isdihara. Let me know how they come out if you try it.
Those came out great. I am so excited that you shared the pattern with us. Thank you so much.
These turned out very nice. I may have to make some for my daughter. How did you attach them to the circles? That is such a neat idea!
Hi there! I just came back over to say thank you for entering my giveaway! Good luck to you!
Thanks, Elizabeth, and you're welcome!
Thanks, TattingChic, I hope some of your recent luck on winning rubs off on me!
Thanks, Paula C. I used sewing thread of the color of the tatting thread and just caught a join or thread. The backs aren't very pretty! I trace around a CD as a pattern to cut the denim. My daughter thought they were great.
