Butterflies Take Flight on a Pretty Mug Rug
There are Instructions for Coasters, Too!
This whimsical mug rug will brighten your home during the grayest days. It’s just big enough for a mug and a treat on the side, perfect for keeping near your desk or handy in the kitchen.
Stitch one together in next to no time. Fusible applique makes for a quick project that can be put together from colorful scraps.
It also makes a wonderful last-minute gift any time of the year. Give one to someone you appreciate, for any occasion or just because.
The pattern, from The Patchsmith, can be adapted for both a 5″ coaster made from a charm square and a 6″ butterfly block for use in a quilt or other project. There are examples of coasters below and blocks above.
The mug rug, before quilting, is 9.5″ x 5″ and the unfinished butterfly block is 6.5″.
You’ll find a QAYG tutorial for the mug rug here.
