Has anyone seen this font?
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.

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!

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.
