Patchwork and Quilting techniques were used to make this Checker Like Mug Rug. To my surprise the colours blend together nicely.
Mug Rug can be used in many capacities as a placemat, home decor within the household etc.
2 1/2 of 3 1/2 inch squares of whatever colours you like to use. Stitch together in a 1/4 inch seam allowances to form square. Cut batting and backing out according and do the turning inside out method. Optional Quilt

Quilting involves a variety of techniques that can enhance your projects and make the process more enjoyable. Here are some essential quilting techniques to master:
Patchwork Piecing: This is the most common quilting technique, where you sew small pieces of fabric together to create a larger design. It’s the foundation of many quilt patterns1.
Appliqué: This technique involves sewing smaller pieces of fabric onto a larger background fabric to create designs or pictures. It can be done by hand or machine2.
English Paper Piecing: A method where fabric is basted around paper templates and then sewn together by hand. It’s great for intricate designs and precise piecing3.
Foundation Paper Piecing: This technique uses a paper pattern as a foundation to sew fabric pieces together. It’s excellent for achieving precise and complex designs3.
Free-Motion Quilting: This involves using a sewing machine to quilt in any direction, allowing for creative and intricate designs. It requires practice to master but offers great flexibility2.
Hand Quilting: The traditional method of quilting by hand, which can be very relaxing and adds a personal touch to your quilt4.
Machine Quilting: Using a sewing machine to quilt your layers together. It can be done with a walking foot for straight lines or a free-motion foot for more intricate designs4.
Trapunto Quilting: A technique that adds extra dimension to your quilt by stuffing certain areas with additional batting2.
Rotary Cutting: Essential for accurate and efficient cutting of fabric pieces. It involves using a rotary cutter, cutting mat, and ruler1.
Strip Piecing: Sewing long strips of fabric together and then cutting them into smaller units. This technique speeds up the piecing process and ensures accuracy1.

Sewing Nuggets FYI
Stay stitching is a fundamental sewing technique used to stabilize fabric and prevent it from stretching out of shape during the construction process. Here are some key points about stay stitching:
Purpose: Stay stitching is typically done on curved or bias edges, such as necklines and armholes, to maintain their shape and prevent distortion1.
Method: It involves sewing a single row of straight stitches within the seam allowance, usually about 1/8 inch from the edge. This is done on a single layer of fabric1.
When to Use: It’s best to stay stitch as soon as you cut out your fabric pieces, before any handling or sewing of the garment begins1.
