Default Scissor Mats.... just like a mug rug...

My wonderful husband built brand new sewing room furnishings for me! I wanted to protect my new sewing surfaces from scratches and gouges. With that thought in mind, I borrowed the idea of a mug rug, enlarging the size to fit scissors, tweezers etc.
Voila`, A scissor mat was born! I took 3 of my favorite printed panels and created the scissor mats for each sewing station on my sewing table. I will make 2 more for each side of my new cutting table.
The 2 with pins only need the binding whip stitched down and will be ready to go.
