Here is my first summer project. I was going to name this Christmas in July, but that limits me to only posting in July and it is going to be in the 100’s this week so I don’t feel like Christmas right now. Maybe if I play some carols. “Oh the weather outside is frightful”…. yea, it’s hot!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mug Rug<\/strong>, or whatever!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first picture above is the one I colored for Christmas with red, green and gold. The second one is a 3 color ring. The last one is a scrappy one. Please excuse the coloring… I can’t draw a straight line with a ruler… and apparently coloring causes an issue also!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The block measures 9 inches so it is perfect for a mug rug. Link a few of the rings together for a table topper or a longer side by side rings for a table runner. And you don’t have to embroidery the center. How about just finding a fabric print you really like and go from there. Watercolor a picture in the center! The sky is the limit on your creativity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I plan on using my Jack’s rose picture and place that in the center. But the question is to use embroidery or watercolor. But more on that process of watercolors in a future post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stay Tuned….. I hope to post each Wednesday until September.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
