modern maple mug rugs

modern maples mug rug mania. a family set.

so, modern maple mania is sweeping the internet quilty world. and i’ve been wanting to make some little mug rugs (or placemats) for my kiddos, who pretty much hi-jack all of the mug rugs in the house. and i knew i’d never finish a whole modern maples quilt, given my time restrictions.

so, i got to work cutting. and piecing. until i had enough maple leaves to make six mug rugs.
(then i got sick. then i got better. then i finished them.)

this backing is BY FAR my favorite. and i’m not even keeping it. i don’t think. orange corduroy.

and, finally. a shot of the stack of them. to see fun bindings. a bit of up close quilting. etcetera…
