No One Can Make Just One...

More mug mats.
Someone stop me. They're addictive, I tell you.
No one can make just one.
More Heritage fabric with a crow drawn by Michelle Palmer...
and a summery, French Patisserie fabric with
vintage lace and a little tea time tape.
Perhaps something even more feminine?
Vintage lace and twill tape sentiments...
or sweet roses with love notes tucked in the blooms,
embellished with a flowery piece of lace.

I've discovered the joy of this divinely simple and sweet project.
Perfect gifts for special friends...or a swap project!
I'm just having too much fun to stop!

Would anyone like to participate in a Mug Mat Swap?
If so, please email me to let me know.
(Please put "Mug Mat Swap" in the subject line.)
I've been included in a new Etsy Showcase!
It's called "Feeling Hearty" from CarolinaForero.
Thank you, Carolina, for adding me to your
talented showcase. I really appreciate it.

Oh, and there's still time to enter the PhotoBook Creator Giveaway.
Just click here to enter.

    These mug mats are so pretty. Are they easy to make? Maybe good for a first quilting project? I'm trying to find something that would be simple and easy for my first quilting project EVERY.

    The mugmats look great! Your fabric choices and the details are lovely. Maybe I do need to learn to sew!

    Hi pretty lady,

    Well, those are just the neatest things I've seen in quite a while. Although everything you make is a treasure, these are ingenious! Don't forget.......do you still wanna swap?

    Hugs,

    Donna,
    They are beautiful! I love that Heritage fabric with the crow...great! Silly question: are the mats like rectangular coasters? What sizes are they? I'm thinking along the same lines as Pam in Belgium...this may be a good (and simple?) first quilting project?
    Have a great weekend.

    Hi Donna,
    The mug mats are all beautiful. Love the detail with the laces. I would be interested in doing a swap. Just got a new sewing machine this week so this might just the project to get me started. Keep us posted!
    Enjoy your weekend.

    Each and every mug mat you create is so beautiful. I love how you coordinate the fabrics with the laces, trims, drawings, etcetera. You really have an eye for these. Happy sewing...

    These mug mats are beautiful. I'm so-so at quilting and patcvhwork but you're obviously outstading! I love the way you've pieced them together.

    Oh, and I really hope your gorgeous dog feels better very soon.
