Fun with hessian

Late last year I acquired a coffee bean sack.
Here are some of the things I've made from it :-) 

Rooster doorstop for my mother-in-law
Kokako coasters to go with 'kokako' brand fair trade drinking chocolate
Padded felt picture of a kokako for my niece
Padded felt kowhai picture for a good friend

Coffee bean sacks are huge!  All of this has used just over half of one side of it!
