    Someone should have warned me that making mug rugs is addictive! I mean I was already addicted to buying fabric and to sewing but making mug rugs is even more addictive because you have a finished product so fast! Especially after struggling with all the queen size quilt tops I have been trying to finish. Now I am making mug rugs for all the Easter baskets I was going to fill with goodies for the neighbor kids and my grandson.

    I made my first mug rug Sunday and ended up making 5 because they went so fast!

    Guess I better find a quilting buddy in East Central Michigan so I can send some things ahead of my move this summer.

    I only use cotton or cotton blend battings because I am allergic to polyester and wool. I just use 1 layer of Hobbs Heirloom.

    I also love to make a quilt for my foot ottoman. Change them per season. It also helps to keep the cat hair and feet/shoes off my furniture.
