Today I finally decided to tackle some of my 1930's scraps. I wouldn't call these two mug rugs they are a little too big, and too small to be called a place mat. They are the perfect size for tea!
This morning began by slicing into a stack of various sized scraps. I decided to use my 5 inch hexagon template and my 2.5 inch tumbler template.
Although, this flower pot of scraps does look cute sitting my sewing area. Not for long.
Here are all the hexagons cut and ready to go.
Patch volunteered to join me for a tea party at high noon today. We of course tried out our new placemats and celebrated being done another project.
The backing to the hexagon is a cherry pattern.
The back of the tumblers is a little kitty.
Now I get to actually use my new mat and enjoy a real cup of tea! Happy Saturday everyone, kick back and relax.
Sew long for now,
CHELS
