How I made the "Mug Rug Sewing With A Little Difference"

This type of sewing is a little different to me because I am used to sewing from patterns for clothing for myself over the years.  I didn't so much concentrate on craft sewing which is a little different to me then garment sewing.  Just like quilting is a difference to me too.   However, I am adjusting.

Finished size of the Mug Rug is 11 inches by 5 inches

To make:-

2 pieces of 4 1/2 inches by 4 1/2 inches plain fabric

1 piece of 4 1/2 inches by 2 1/2 inches design fabric

11 inches by 5 inches batting 

12 1/2 inches by 6 1/2 inches backing fabric.

Threads

Tools to make:-

Sewing Machine

Rotary and Scissors

Ruler and tape measure

All stitching at 1/4 inch seam allowances.

Stitch the 2 pieces of fabric of 4 1/2 by 4 1/2 together with the 1 piece of 4 1/2 inches by 2 1/2 inches of fabric placed in the middle. Place applique as you like here.  I placed and zig zagged around it to hold in place.  Sandwich together the top layer, then the batting and backing.  The backing will be used as backing and as binding.   Sew in the ditch on each side of the middle 1 piece of 4 1/2 inches by 2 1/2 inches.  Then prepare binding according from the backing.

THANK YOU!

Thank you to many of the videos seen online in the #sewing #quilting #crafting #mugrugs they been very informative and helpful over the years.  They help refresh sewing skills resting dormant over the years too.
