Mug Rug Fun

I have a little mug rug fun to share with you today. It’s my day to participate in the No Ring November Mug Rug Blog Hop hosted by Carla of Creatin’ in the Sticks. My mug rug has nothing to do with the upcoming holidays, but it might come in handy nonetheless. 

One of the quickest ways to whip up a mug rug is to use small panels. I have these little cat panels with some catitude. Here are a few, to give you an idea:

So I pulled a couple of my favorites for some mug rug fun – a reversible mug rug! 

With the holidays before us, there are days coming when everything is coming together well – your coffee was warm and delicious, and there were no spills or rings!! You clip along, getting errands done, first line line at check outs, grocery list checked off, gifts bought (maybe even wrapped). You feel like –

Queen of Everything, right?!

But there are those other mornings, when you can hardly put one foot in front of the other. You stumble out of bed, the coffee is too strong (Is that even possible), you spill it (ring and mess everywhere).For those days, you just flip this little mug rug over –

Nope. Not today.

The background fabric is a fun little bird feet print by AGF. Of course, I had to use a striped binding, fabric by Dear Stella. 

I don’t know what side you favor today, but either way, I hope you stop over and visit the other bloggers who are sharing their No Ring November mug rugs today. Here they are:
