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!
