A Mug Shot

Under the mug is a 4 inch mug rug made using the same method as is described in my Feb. 5 post, "Seams Stacked to Me". For a 4 inch finished mug rug, I used 4.5 inch squares. Also, in this version I used pre-quilted fabric for the batting/full square piece.

This side affords the most stable seat for a mug. The raised corners help keep the mug well centered.

The reverse side is from a pre-quilted piece. I think heat resistant batting would be overkill for a mug rug. My coffee is not as hot as all those shops who feel the need to print "Caution" on each cup, after all.
