Welcome! Today's post is all about quilted cup cozies. These little gems were inspired by the crochet and knit versions of the cup cozies in combination with my recent endeavors with the Microwave Bowl Hot Pads (MBHP - see the previous blog posts). As I was cutting and preparing to make the MBHPs, I realized I had large enough pieces left over to make some smaller items. Eventually it dawned on me that I could use the paper sleeves from my recent trips to the coffee shop as a pattern for quilted cup cozies. After a few questionable attempts and some wonky stitching, I finally figured out how to piece it all together and make it work well.
As a note, all of this batch of quilted cup cozies have been gifted. The next batch will have some for sale.
Above: This is the picture of the "right sides" of all the cup cozies I quilted. 15 in total. They are all reversible.
Below: The next three pictures are of the same cozie. I stitched a tree, an ornament, and a light around this winter holiday cozie.
Above: With 4 different cactus cozies, each with green plaid on the reverse side, two were stitched around the cacti. This seemed to work quite well.
Above: This cactus cozie was stitched with the "pebble" design.
Below: I particularly enjoy random "squiggle" quilting.
Above and below: The duck and flower fabrics are the reverses of each other. Super cute!
Above: Computer fabric on the "right side" with simple stitching.
Below: Computer fabric on the "right side" with a "wave" stitching.
Above and below: The computer fabrics are reversible with the blue fabric (below), and the "squiggles" stitching blue cozie below is reversible with another blue fabric. I really like this picture because it captures the fading of the blue fabric as well as where I closed the fabric into a cozie shape.
Above and below: This bird fabric is super cute and pairs nicely with the floral fabric (two pictures down). One of these is reversible with another bird fabric and the other is reversible with the floral fabric. The floral fabric two pictures down is reversible with another piece of the same floral fabric.
These last three are gifts to the same friends who received the MBHPs of the same fabric.
I hope you enjoyed quilted cup cozies!
Blessings and Peace!
