A mug rug, every one drinks something.
A simple idea is using a pinking shears but out two 6 inch circles, one solid and one print and a thin piece of flannel or batting. Sew a narrow seam around it, fold in 4 sides and tack down. Or,is your want to sew the circles with the batting, wrong sides together and turn. Presto ! you have a cathedral window mug rug.
Another I have made is using two 4 or 5 inch squares. Take a cinnamon stick, some whole nutmegs and cloves, put in a plastic bag and pound with a hammer till almost pulverized, put a little between the pieces of cloth and sew 1/2 inch around the perimeter. A warm cup of coffee or tea makes a nice aroma when used.
