The design of this patriotic coaster and place mat by another of my namesake, is super. I love the layout is would really be stunning at a fourth of Juk gathering. If you are not into crocheting or don't have the time, I like see modifying this design using fabric of at similar color and pattern attaching borders with coordinating colors and design. Super!
