Mug Rugs~ Do you actually use them?
#91
For those of you who are new to the board or haven't heard of mug rugs, go to the top of page and click on search and put "mug rugs" in the box. There are many pictures and threads.
I made a poinsetta mug rug with matching mug for a friend last Christmas. I'm planning on making more for this Holiday coming up to sell.
here's a link for a tutorial http://contented.typepad.co.uk/conte...-part-one.html
this is helpful to get you started then you can go on to be more creative from there.. Quoted from Suefish

I've been in 4 mug rug swaps and there is only one that I won't put my coffee mug on, it is priceless to me and don't want to get it stained or ruined. I put it on my kitchen island for 'pretty', the other 3 I do use. At my computer, my recliner and in my sewing studio.
I hope to make more for gifts and hope that they'll be used ... I don't make 'priceless' gifts, LOL.

Okay, I've read through all the threads but I don't see an answer to my question which is, I find coffee and hot chocolate stains almost impossible to get out without bleach and, try as I might, my coffee or hot chocolate cup always "leaks" down the side of the cup. Does noone else have this problem and, if so, how did you solve it because I just love the little mug rugs.

Great for makeup bags, lunch bags, and now I think Mug Rugs! After you are done making the top portion of your mug run and have it like you want, you could just iron this stuff over it and then bind it. It is sewable also. It believe it comes in shiny and matte. You can then just wipe off the stain!

I can see having one on your desk at work or a side table. I even thought of making them bigger as snack mats for kids. It would store in a diaper bag pretty easy to have a clean spot to put goldfishies out when you stop at a resturant or park picnic table. How do you use them & who do you give them to?
