How are you getting on with your valentine projects? You still have time to stitch up a little
beauty. Here are a few suggestions from
my pattern shop:
If you are all up to date then how about making a spring
mug rug to remind you that the snow, wind and rain won’t last for ever. I have updated two new patterns in my shop
this weekend. Firstly there is April Sky
which you can make in any colours you like. Here it is hand-stitched in rainbow
colours
And here it is in sunset colours (I call it Marmalade
Sky but it is all the same pattern)
If you prefer to look more at the countryside and less
to the heavens then look no further than Spring Lambs. Folk art meets Patchsmith in this cute little
mug rug.
I have added the “fast-finish triangles” to the back of Spring Lambs and have this hanging over my workdesk. It is a favourite already (as are all my mug
rugs).
So there you have – things to do whilst you snuggle up
indoors on these cold, damp days. I
think it is time for a little patchwork after all this applique. Mmmmmm, incoming idea “time to invent a new
patchwork block”. Better jot it down
whilst I remember it. Sew until next
time .....
p.s. Have you checked out Mug Rug Basics from the tabs at the top of this page. There is lots of useful information on binding, applique, downloading patterns, printing patterns and so much more.
I love all of your mug rugs especially the two linked hearts. That's definitely on my list. I think I'll have to do a little shopping!
