Get out! That is so clever. I like how you finished the edges as well. I'm now doing a 'cheater' binding on mine and that makes them go a lot faster. I cut the backing an inch larger than the mug rug all the way around and then fold so that it looks exactly like a regular binding. So much fun on small projects.

LOVE this mug rug. Never thought of using decorative stitches. I have a lot of odd size skinny fabric scraps that I've saved and thought I would play around with sewing them together to see what I came up with. Now I know exactly what I'm going to make with them. So glad you posted this.
What batting did you use? I have lots of Warm & Natural scraps if you think that would work.
