    that is too cute. I just made one for my daughter for her hospital trip. She likes it. Makes her feel more like at home.

    I have made several mug rugs, and a couple of them I just used the sew and turn right side out technique. No binding, quilted a quarter inch or so inside the edge. It looks fine and skips the whole binding thing. Just have to hand stitch the opening closed...... Just an idea to try.

    This is the way I do it too. I'm not good at bias tape. I made several for Christmas gifts with a note as to what they were. The non-sewers look at you kind of funny until they find out what to do with them. They are sooo fun to make.
