Fancy Mug Rug

This was so fun and cute to make.  I've been warned not to spill tea on it! :) Slightly big at 6 1/2" x 10".  Gearing up for another, this time with selvedges. 



Lori's CC & C is coming along.  Slow and steadily.

While cutting 1 1/2" strips for the CC & C, I'm cutting extra for Kathie's Courthouse blocks.  A table topper will look good I think.

Mary Wigham by Needleprint.  Fabric: Tea-dyed 36ct Edinburgh Linen  Floss: DMC (as charted)
A long time WIP.  I am resurrecting it after being inspired by Lillie's progress.  I've completed 3 Parts out of 9.  Hope to complete it by year's end.

  1. You will be starting a lovely collection of mug rugs, but please don't use Jane, it's too pretty. You don't want to tea stain her.
    The stitchery is just gorgeous and your courthouse steps will keep you busy.
