Maryland Coasters!

Well one of my friends who I work with is moving to Hawaii in a couple weeks and we are having a going away party for her tomorrow night on the boat. As part of the party everyone is bringing their favorite "Maryland" things to put in a basket for them to take to Hawaii with them. I will be giving them a bottle of my favorite Maryland wine - Boordy Sangria - a tin of "Old Bay" seasoning (a Maryland staple), 2 wine glasses that have blue crabs painted on them and a set of coasters in Maryland colors. Here's a picture of the coasters I made. The back of each coaster is sailboat fabric.
