Thing 7 - French Press Cozy
I’m a day late on this. (It was LOST night! Come on!)
This is a french press cozy that I designed. I have been wanting a cozy for my press for a long time, but couldn’t find one online that I liked and that seemed like it would really keep my coffee warm. I wanted a nice thick one (this is two layers of cotton sandwiching a thick piece of woolly material) that would cover the entire coffee press, including the top, but that would easily expose the spout when I wanted to pour more coffee. This was off the cuff, and I think I have a better idea for small modifications for my next one, but I’m pretty happy with how it turned out!

this is really clever, and I love the material you’ve used to make it. I never would have considered making a cozy for a french press. thanks for posting this!
beautiful.. great fabric
this is great! awesome fabric and GREAT buttons too. If I didn’t keep breaking my french presses, I’d rip your style and try to make one too
