QUOTE=aneternalpoet;4783374]How about the proverbial potholders, or casserole carriers using only2 fat quarters?- I found a cool link /tutorial for that - so easy, and straight lines really don't matter, cuz there are only a few 1/2 inch seams to sew with it![/QUOTE]
Where did you find the pattern for the casserole carrier using only 2 fat quarters?

Ok.. I have knocked out cutie mug rugs by the droves for my coworkers. Internet search "coffee mixes"..or hot chocolate mixes. Make up a bunch of some mix. Find mugs that correspond color wise with the mug rugs you've sewn (mug rugs are moslty just glorfied pot holders..lol). Put the drink mix in the clear holiday cookie bags you can find at JoAnns or the dollar store. Include the mug rug...and voilla... you have a nice gift.
I did that for my coworkers this year, but I ran out of time (today is our last day until Jan 3). I put a $5.00 Startbucks drink card inside every mug...and wrapped it alll up with a mug rug in the bundle...lol Cutting corners is OKAY.

here is an easy but looks complicated table runner: http://www.quiltbug.com/Free/table-topper.htm I made lots of these one year and after the first one, it takes no time to make it. Make the first one for yourself as it is the learning one. LOL. For me anyway it was.
