Maybe some mug rugs, coasters and/ or matching placemats.

There are plenty of ideas on the net for making them. Have fun and your group has done a great job of fundraising in the past for this terrible disease.

I have the book Pretty Little Purses and Pouches and it has an adorable teapot little zipper purse pattern. I checked on Amazon and it's cheap. A used book is one penny right now.

Apparently that Pretty Little is a series of books. Here's one on cozies:
http://www.amazon.com/Pretty-Little-...dp/1600593763/

Are these similar to the teapot zipper purses in the Pretty Little series?

This Pretty Little book is for potholders:

It's a shame there aren't more photos of the contents of the books on Amazon. You may be able to find some, though, by Googling the book title and then clicking on "images".

oops sorry, it's a tea cup not teapot purse pattern. Still adorable! It was one of the reasons I bought the book. Here is a picture of a lot of them. So cute! Who could resist not buying one?

I absolutely love that mug/rug/bag from Red Brolly! I have had that on my list for gifts for certain people for quite a while. Co-ordinating fabric with a mug would be such a great gift for a special family member or friend. Don't you think people who don't sew would love to buy them?
