Caffeine Carpets

I had to make a little present for John”s kindy teachers so I search the internet and low and behold everyone is making these things called, “Mug Rugs”.  Hmm, not so fussed on the name, so I renamed them “Caffeine Carpets” ( or maybe “Cuppa Mates” ).

For my first attempt, I used a border print for the pocket and hexie flower and aged muslin for the background and backing. The hexies have 1/2″ sides.

Second attempt.

If you could rename the Mug Rug, what would you call it?

I had to put a picture of my Cool Poodle. He has just been sheared for summer.
