    Thanks everyone!
    Caroline, that sounds like the ultimate compliment! I tried to capture the steam rising out of the mug of coffee in the photo.

    When I saw the original date of this post I was surprised and glad it popped to Pg 1. I will be trying my hand at them this weekend. What a great idea. Thanks! I'm gonna put them in one of those little boxes everybody is making!
    peace

    So where do I go to get the pattern
    Originally Posted by BuzzinBumble

So I told myself “Lara, Step Away From the Computer”, went for a walk outside in the sunshine, got a real maple leaf and made up my own pattern. I found some fabrics that would hide stains and wash up well and then made up a few maple leaf mug rugs for our family room. My DH even said he loves them!

    So I am now posting this for anyone else who would also like to make them. Seems like an Autumn-y thing to do. If any of you do make one, I would LOVE to see your pictures and see how they come out in different fabrics.

    Please bear with me while I post the directions and pictures, as I’m going to post them one step at a time to keep them in the right order.

    Thank you! Yes. It's a mini quilt I made. It's almost time to put her away and get a Christmassy one out.

    Recurver your leaves turned out so beautiful! I love how you have them displayed. Thank you for sharing the picture - It made my day
    Ronda, I love your little owl quilt too! He is very winsome. Hard to believe it is only about a month before we get out our Christmas decorations.

    Shirsh - it used to be you could get the pattern by simply clicking on the picture of the pattern. That does not seem to be working anymore either. You can get the pattern now by downloading either the MS Word or the pdf files. Sorry that the page references for the word and PDF patterns are in the wrong places now. When the QB switched to it's new form, it changed what pages posts were on. So... The final versions are here:
    Marcia's word version is in post #272
    Kim's PDF file is in post #274
