Isnt this the cutest little thing! A koozie for your drink bottle. I didn't think up the idea, saw it in a scrapbook shop but adapted it using Stampin' Up! supplies. The big flower from the Pretties Kit, Flower Fusion Rose Red and Old Olive flowers, the green flower from Hooray Designer Hardware, and in the center a Filigree Flower Designer Brad. Behind the big flower I folded White Organza Ribbon and stitched down the center. On the sides I attached 3 buttons from the Colored Buttons collection. The center has quilt batting covered by two pieces of black polka dot felt and stitched all around for a shabby chic look. I used velcro dots to close but am thinking next time I will sew in 5/8 " wide ribbon and tie the koozie so it will fit multiple bottle sizes. Maybe I will color the flowers next time as well. So many possibilities. Meantime, I think it makes my boring water bottle look pretty special, don't you? See below for a picture of the koozie lying flat. These are so easy and quick to make so you should never have a boring bottle again! Bonus, no one will pick up your bottle by mistake, unless they want your koozie. <G>
