Mug Rugs and Fabric

Occasionally I "do the Twitter", but I still don't have a clue.  

Recently, I've seen quite a number of tweets about mug rugs.  Not wanting to ask the obvious, I searched mug rugs on Flickr.  Boy, am I in trouble!

I'm probably the only person who hasn't heard of mug rugs, but just in case I'm not, mug rugs are basically oversized coasters.  These are a great size because you can showcase some cool fabrics and patterns without them being covered up by your coffee mug.  Another cool thing is, I finally found a project for my Blah Blah Blah fabric.

Keep in mind, these are practice mug rugs and WIPs at that.  The binding isn't sewn down on the left one, and there is no binding at all on the right one....not to mention my sewing machine didn't want to cooperate...  I thought the Blah Blah Blah fabric was appropriate as that is how I feel before I've had my morning coffee!

These coffee cup fabrics I've had for a while, and I'm still using leftover binding.  Sweet!

Here's what happens when I hang out in my LQS with time on my hands and no list.

I have zero will power.  At least these fabrics were in the bargain bin marked down 50% ;-)

Have an amazing day!!!
