Finished the latest scrappy mug rug...

I had shown you a sketch, earlier, and I was actually able to make it work in fabric, surprisingly enough.  Yes, I always doubt my own abilities to translate an idea into an actual object.  

 I tried a new-to-me technique- weaving strips of fabric together that have fusible webbing on the back, to make the tablecloth.  That was fun and very easy to do.

Here's a close up of raw-edge appliqueing.

The finished mug rug- the binding is a red with pale gray dots.

The label is the tea bag paper thing.  I added the napkin to help make the cup and saucer stand out from the tablecloth more, it adds a nice 3D touch, too.

 The back is called "Round Robin" by Michael Miller. 

I still have to decide on the Haiku poem to go with this.  I'll write it on a card and include it.  I hope my partner likes this.  It's not very practical, really, but I think it came out pretty well.  Now I just to make her a little something extra and it'll be ready to mail when the time comes.  :)

Thanks for looking at it!
