I've been seeing these coffee cozy things everywhere and I' wanted to make one so I figured what the hell..lemme give it a try

This week's picks by Char were a good jumping off point

I was torn with how to close it- I've seen it as a 1 piece, snaps, and buttons-- I decided to go with the elastic\button one- that way its adjustable for whatever cup I use.

Go have a lookie at the other girls projects...
