A Stars and Stripes Mug Rug is a Wonderful Gift

Just about everyone will enjoy having their own stars and stripes mug rug for their table or desk. This striking mini quilt will be put to good use all year long.
Vivid colors give it an eye-catching flair, or use more subdued coloration for an Americana look. You may already have fabrics in your stash that will work wonderfully for this project.
Simple piecing and fusible applique make the mug rug a quick and easy project, even for beginners. If you’re unable to locate navy fabric with stars, consider appliqueing a star in that block as shown below.
Once completed, the mug rug from The Patchsmith is about 9″ x 5″. That’s the perfect size for placing under a mug with room for a treat on the side.
