I tried really hard to make it using calm non-bright colors, and I think it turned out well. My mom really liked it as well.
Here it is in progress and then finished.

Mug Rug for Mom
One last Christmas present post for you all before I wrap up the 2011 holiday season. I've seen this style of patchwork before and have wondered how to do it. I was therefore super excited to see Janet Somerset's guest post and tutorial for these cards on Sew Happy Geek. I originally thought I'd make one of these into an ornament for my mom, but then decided on a little mug rug so she could have it out all year. I followed the instructions on the tutorial exactly and it worked out perfectly!
