I looks as if it is an embroidery applique. I saw it here but she doesn't say how she made it or where the font is from. Look familiar to anyone? I love it.

To me......it looks like raw edge applique. Love it!
It could be from Nancy Halvorsen's Art to Heart book......."I Believe"
If you click on the mug rug picture, it becomes pretty clear that the letters are done by means of fusible raw edge applique. Have no idea where she got the letters; they look like a mixture of different fonts to me. For example, look at the two r's in Merry -- different sizes and styles. Her selection of fabrics for the letters looks like genius!
I agree with Prism99. If you enlarge the photo, you can see that she used some of the fabric from binding. I never understand why quilter's post items that they made without telling us how.Originally Posted by Prism99
A Good Friend, like an old quilt, is both a Treasure and a Comfort
Oh, i want one like that!!!
put off till tomorrow what you can do today, and if you procrastinate long enough, you may never have to do it.
Contact the blogger and ask about the font and pattern.
Better to do something imperfectly, than nothing perfectly.
Done is better than perfect.
If you'll look down through the comments, others have asked her about it and to possibly do a tutorial. There is not one reply from the blogger.

Try googling applique fonts. You may be able to find it that way.
My suggestion is to find some fonts on your printer that you really like (both upper and lower case) and choose the largest size you can that will fit your mug rug. Then use the printed letters as your pattern and trace onto paper-backed fusible paper. Press each letter onto the BACK of the fabric of your choice. Do a rough cut (leave about 1/8" of fabric all around) to make sure that the fusible really stuck. If not, repress. Then do a final cut. Take off the paper backing and fuse to your mug rug, then topstitch down.
