Default Mug Rugs for Sandy Hook Kids

Having fun making Mug Rugs for the kids in Newtown, CT. This was my first time trying reverse applique and one was reverse applique using several colors. I just figured out on my own how to layer the colors. I also did my version of a Muppet I call Miss Muppet. The Superman Comic ones were easy and I made one reversible. The 4 hearts one was done just like a snowflake pattern would be made. Ooops, I haven't finished that one yet, but wanted to show what I've done so far! I just love the effect and will probably give it a ruffle edging by trimming the top layer back some.

I made handles for each one so it would be easy for the kids to carry and hang in their rooms to decorate with when not being used with milk and cookies.

I've made 6 so far
