Mug Rug Love

IMG_5979

Inspired by the Rainbow Charm Swap and this tutorial, I made this colorful mug rug!

I love the colors (which may look familiar) and the shapes that were made with the different way I sewed the triangles together.  I sashed it in white to make the 3 and 1/4 inch block stand out.  I know the seams aren't perfect, but I still love it.

This was my first time hand sewing the binding down.  I've been a bit intimidated by it and have never really been happy with machine sewing it so I thought I would give it a try.  I am very happy with the results!

I made this with the intention of giving it away as a small gift of thanks to a specific person, so I really hope she likes it!  It will be a bit hard to give it away.
