Mug rug tutorial.



Mug Rug Tutorial
1.  Sew seven 3 1/2 inch blocks together in the configuration above. 
2.  Lay a piece of batting down, lay the backing on top of the batting -- right side up
3.  Lay the pieced mug rug down in the backing with the right sides together.
4.  Sew all around, leaving a 3 inch opening to pull the right sides back out.
5.  Close the opening and then quilt it and top stitch 1/4 inch from the edges all the way around!

Then you can see that I've FMQ some little flowers and vines.

  It was pretty quick to make!
