Lighthouse Mug Rugs
 
2 Attachment(s)
I made these mug rugs for our RV. They are a bit larger than usual due to the size of the lighthouses. I used a layer of Insulbrite in between the two layers of fabrics. I changed the binding from a simple solid red to the red/white stripe which really jazzed them up..and also mimics stripes on the lighthouses.

I love them. I have a friend that collects anything with lighthouses, and he'd love to get his hands on these. They're wonderful. Thanks for posting.

Oh my gosh,.. I suddenly realized I posted the same photo twice instead of the reverse side of each mug!! Oh dear.. the mind is the first to go! giggle giggle
Having difficulties posting at the moment. Ok, hopefully this will show up this time!
This is the reverse side!!

very nice........

Divokittysmom 05-15-2012 05:08 PM

Thanks sew much for the lovely comments. Lighthouses are a passion of mine! They sure brighten up the RV, also made a lighthouse tablecloth! Just a piece of lighthouse fabric that I serged around but totally love the lighthouse theme!
Thank you again!

That's okay, they are beautiful enough to look at twice.

Now, I would have a daily dilemma of which side to use. When making great mats, always have a plain side so there will be no question. I hate to start off my day having to make decisions so early.

Helen S 05-15-2012 06:08 PM

They are so cute! LOVE the binding...it's the perfect accent!

sewnsewer2 05-15-2012 06:56 PM

I like them! Make some a little larger and you'll have some nice placemats too.
