I really struggle with the creative part. I can take a pattern and go from there, but to pull something out of my head and make it happen with my fingers, well, that just doesn't happen. But I gave it the ole' college try and this is my Mug Rug.
With several left over blocks from my string quilt, adding a cup of enormous proportions (we like coffee here), I put this little Mug Rug together. My daughter had a mug with appropriate colors, and the cookies were added for staging :-) How fun is that?I hope you have a great weekend! And Happy Quilting!

Oh I love this mug rug! I haven't saw these. I thought you were gonna make that little potato bag that I have been seeing everywhere. That is why I said potatoes. I should have said coffee!!lol
Great mug rug! I'm pretty much the same way you are - give me a pattern and I'll produce but design - not so much. I did create a mug rug and had fun doing it. Maybe this will start my designing side of my brain to work.
I think you did a beautifully creative job on this - you should pull ideas out of your head more often! It's darling!
What a wonderful idea , I am always setting my coffee cup on some type of paper padding, I also have a small quilted sample square I made a couple years ago for laying my glasses and hearing aid on at night while sleeping . It needs to be finished though, a great gift idea!
So very clever!!!! Love the colors.
Hello Jocelyn., How tickled I am to see one...and to think I and jodi may have inspired you...well, I LOVE THIS..and you must have sent me some vibes as on the weekend, I made 2 of them with fancy cups on them...NOW you have inspired me... Sew will you be making more?
I thought I sent a note...guess I didn't ....well I am certainly inspired...I even made a couple this weekend ..we must have been on the same wave length...the cup idea is what I mean....you know I made mug rugs lol..
Scuse me, I thought you said you couldn't come up with your own designs? This is great.
That is beautiful!! I think yours is one of my favorites, and I have seen alot of them! I may have to break down and work on one during Friday Night Sew In.
You did great coming up with your own design! That is something I really struggle with and honestly I don't try to much these days. I should though!
Well, I would say that you DO have a creative side that you just haven't tapped. The Mug rug is adorable!!
Crispy
Very cute!
It's really really cute! Great job! Don't ever say you can't come up with anything on your own!
Oh Jocelyn, what a cute mug run. Love it!
