It doesn't look like much, does it?
Does this help?
I've been wanting to try my hand at a cup sleeve/cozy/thingy for a while now, but I don't drink coffee. I didn't know what size to make it. So when visitors came bearing what they thought was garbage, I jumped with glee, washed it, and put it in the cupboard for safekeeping. I'm sure they thought I was a nutjob. Oh well.
That was a few weeks ago, but I finally made one. I discovered that it fits both sizes (don't ask me what they are, I would call them medium and large) and it fits my drinking glasses too.
It is alpaca/wool needlefelted to a foundation fabric, then fused to another piece of fabric. This should protect well from both hot and cold.
Nice - And pretty too! Bonus!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't help thinking that one of these would make a nice belt or maybe a neck wrap for Judy. :)
How pretty and utilitarian. Clever girl.
ReplyDeleteVery cool! I like the colors too.
ReplyDeleteramp it up!
ReplyDeletecall starbucks headquarters asap. cup sleeve/cozy/thingy = a million bucks.
(they love home grown, their customers love to buy stuff...and even if they are downsizing, they still have THOUSANDS of stores.)
ps - when it takes off can i have a job? i kinda know how to felt...
Now THAT's something a girl in CA can use! Well, except that I bring my own cup to the coffee shop...
ReplyDeleteBrilliant idea - and beautiful.
