I’m officially in the mug rug craze!

Did you know there are heaps of free patterns at FatCat Patterns ?

This is a from the Ethnic Flavored Designs page. I’ve had this in my Applique folder of my Google Bookmark for too long a time…I really do have a long list of To~Do’s !

Used blanket stich for the applique. Have I mentioned before that I love to hand stitch? Did this while watching re-runs of ER :)

Quilted simple straight lines. Wanted to try stippling but I have not practiced enough yet .. and I didn’t want to spoil my first mug rug!

    Watch out they are so fun to make and the ideas are endless. I made 6 at Christmas and gave them all away now I need some for me! I am thinking of digging through my basket of orphan blocks and use them up this way!
