Block Loop Coasters

SUPPLIES:
1.   You can buy precut squares of 7 count canvas.  the squares are 4 inches square.
 Check the edges for smootheness, before buying.  I have come across defective squares, in the past.
2.  Size 16 needle, 2 packs,  I find this size works best, but you may use one that's slightly larger.
Make sure the eye of the needle goes through the squares easily. Use a blunt point for beginning.
3.  Two colors of coordinating yarn or verigated and a matching solid yarn, 3 or 4 ply.
4. A pair of small scissors, the Iowa folding scissors do fine.
5. a case to keep your scissors and needles in, such as a change purse that zips or snaps closed.

We have set a date of  October 1 and most likely October 8 at 8:00 pm.

If you have any questions or want to join the class, e-mail me at;

Enjoy!

Orange and black or Christmas green and red would be some good holiday choices.  These make nice gifts.
