Have you made the quilted mug rugs?

We have been talking about these in live chat at midnight. Yes some of us are chatting at midnight (Midnight Owl Club) come and join us sometime we talk about all kinds of things. It is fun to chat with quilters from all over the world in live chat. As you never know who will pop in to chat from quilting board quilters.

Would love to see a picture. My sister makes potholders and gifts me with some several times a year, so I use those as coasters for both hot and cold drinks. The cotton absorbs the condensation of the cold drinks and the teflon fabric protects the surface from the hot cups. I use them as mini place mats for bowls, etc., too.

Mug rugs are what I am making for christmas gifts for all the ladies at work. They are very easy and lots of fun to make. they make up very quickly. I make mine 6' X 9' with 2 fat quarters I can get 4 using 1 for front and 1 for back. Also it is an easy way to practice different blocks
