The original inspiration for this Mug Rug came from here, but I took quite a few liberties and changed a lot of it. We sewists are always free to do that, eh?! The pictures below show how I made it.
Press a narrow strip of green for the clover's stem and
topstitch into place diagonally on 2" white square.
Only a wee bit of binding left to hand sew on the back and then it will be complete... isn't the leprachan fabric cute? [not sure I spelled that correctly..lol]. I'll finish the binding when Missy goes back to sleep. lol
That's all for today - Thank you so much for dropping by. I hope where ever you are that you have time to create something that makes you or someone you love happy.
Quilty hugs,

What a sweet little mug rug. The fabric you found for the back is just perfect! Hope you were able to get the binding done.
Great looking Mug Rug. I love the backing fabric. I'm sure it's going to be loved and well used. Great close-up pics by the way!

I'm happy to see how yours turned out. It looks great! :)
What a sweet little mug rug! Has Missy fallen asleep yet so you can finish it :) My kitties never sit on my lap, sure you don't want to trade my 3 for Missy????
Nice. Very Irish!
