I went a little mug rug crazy for Christmas this year. I've been seeing them on creative blogs and I just needed to make some... and then give them to people.

One of the nice things about making mug rugs, is that since they are small, you can FINISH them! Yay. I got to practice quilting techniques in a manageable, and fun way. Pattern picking, cutting, piecing, sewing, cutting and piecing some more, machine quilting and binding.

Plus, I even practiced making bias tape to go with some of them, and I know I'll be making and using my own bias tape in the future as well. My cousin got some as a gift, as well, and we will use it one of these sewing Sundays, I know we will!

Now, if I can just get the hang of adding photos again... (took some major experimentation to get these in...)
