Liberty Mug Rug



Quilting time again so this time I made a sampler mug rug. All the fabric is from Liberty and all are Lawn Prints.

I trimmed the fabrics, with a rotary cutter and a self healing mat, into 5 inch squares and machine sewed with a 1/4 inch seam allowance to form a four patch block.




I made my quilting sandwich using Warm & Natural batting and some plain cream 100% cotton backing.




I quilted with black thread in a 1 inch square pattern using the walking foot and the guide.




I then hand bound in pink.




I didn't realise how much I love the Liberty print collections and the quality of the print and thread count makes the fabrics really luxurious and smooth.

Must use more Liberty in future (just ordered a new sewing machine too !).
