I was going through my kitchen cabinets looking for something last week when I found this cutie. Suddenly, I had another idea of what to do with the orphan blocks I could not turn into quilts – mug rugs!
I’ve had this block forever and could not think what to do with it. The fabrics are so romantic. Problem solved!
I have no idea where these tiny blocks came from! Now they going to be used a lot (forgot to switch to the walking foot while quilting so it did not turn out perfect… I used Aurifil monofilament while quilting the last two mug rugs.
And here they are together:
Oh… if I continue this way Christmas will be so easy this year! I have two more mug rugs to show you tomorrow.
I could have just as well turned them into pot holders but I don’t like them as I prefer mitts. I have mug rugs all throughout the house, though, and hope the recipients of these will enjoy them as much as I do!
Happy sewing day,

I think this is such a wonderful idea!
