great job, love your mug rugs

mjsylvstr 09-23-2011 02:35 PM

best part about them...they can be made from your stash.

In another thread on the board, about mug rugs..one very clever lady even wrote a cute poem about them for gifts.

If I can find the thread, I will post it..

thanks all for the compliments...

they were a lot of fun making them... and for most of the patterns, I googled free paper piecing pattern.

Can't beat that!!!!!!!!!!!

QUILTNMO 09-23-2011 02:41 PM

craftybear 09-23-2011 02:44 PM

mjsylvstr 09-23-2011 02:49 PM

I can't seem to find the thread but the lady who wrote it did mention that it was find to use the little poem...I added a few extra lines to mine and all are welcome to use it if they care.

or change it to fit you needs......


mug rug poem

A place for coffee, vino or tea,
whenever you use it, please think of me
There's extra room for a little treat,
be it pretzels, nuts or something sweet.
Now pick up your glass, for a round of good cheer,
My wish for you .....
"lots of luck"
throughout the new year.

I love your apple for the teacher mug rug. Very creative.
Anyone receiving one for a gift would know you put a lot of thought and effort into the gift.

brookemarie19 09-24-2011 04:36 AM

I love the apple! I want to make one of those to put on my wall in the kitchen. Did you google that one too or did it come from somewhere else?

cyniree 09-24-2011 04:57 AM

very cute.

jeannie t 09-24-2011 05:18 AM

Love your mug rugs!

IrelandDragonQuilting 09-24-2011 05:36 AM

OK I love them all, but that Queen of QVC one just made me giggle!

jodyma 09-24-2011 05:36 AM

I absolutely love the mug rugs, but have not been able to find a pattern. Is everyone designing as they go or are there patterns for these? I'm afraid I'm very challenged when it comes to designing.

JanieH 09-24-2011 05:38 AM

I love your mug rugs. As a retired teacher, I would have loved to get the apple one! And thank you for the poem.

bobbie1 09-24-2011 05:55 AM

Nice! :thumbup:

I have fallen in love with mug rugs and yours are very creative and cute. I am making mug rugs for Christmas too and came across this really neat star that is supposed to be a potholder, but I am going to make it as a mug rug. Here is the link: file:///Users/pcgardner/Desktop/Moda%20Bake%20Shop:%20Fancy%20Folded%20Star%20Pot% 20Holder.webarchive

Tinabug 09-24-2011 06:43 AM

I would love to be your friend. What sweet gifts.

Nanaquilts44 09-24-2011 06:45 AM

I love these. You are so creative to make these personalized. You did a beautiful job on these. The QVC one made me laugh.
