A Bunch of Grapes

After getting in the mail the awesome "bunch of grapes" trivet that my grandma made from a pattern in a ladies magazine in 1955:


I decided to make my own. I used the same idea of making cozies for bottle caps, and sewed them together according to the layout of my grandma's trivet.


I found the purple crochet thread at the thrift store for a dollar for a giant spool. It's Uki brand Supreme. The leaves are some leftover cotton yarn from a baby hat I made a long time ago. I think it turned out amazingly well.

Here are the grape trivet twins:
