Octagonal - placemat/mugrug/potholder? This is made ITH using the strip and flip method (thanks for the description, dragonflyer!) It was made in my 200mm square hoop - and won't really be worth doing any smaller.

The design with Instruction are on 'My Garden Embroidery Designs'
LINK below 'http://www.mygardened.com/index.p...;product_id=3047' Colour theme is Red,Black & white Multy sizes

this is very neat ! How I wish I can get the pattern and try too but I guess I missed my chances.

yes i would love it hugs I have a new machine

This is wonderful of you to offer it to us. Love it.

Looks great, no wonder they are so popular...will have to try one, thanks for all your great designs.

Pretty project! Love your fabric Sue!

Now i am wondering if I could make this into a quilt by using the zig zag to join the sections together as i have done in bags. but then of course it could be easily made into totes as well as what you have designed it for.by simply joining the blocks and laying a pattern on top and cutting it out
by adding flannelet to act as padding a nice summer weight quilt could easily be made plus if made into a childs cot size it would be more durable for washing But dare i ask for the pattern Sue Many thanks of you send it on to me and that special project will be started tomorrow so hopefully i will be free to start quilting again next week

Don't forget that octagons do not tessellate and that you would need squares to fill the gaps. Hexagons would be better!

ahh yes but a small square can be added with ease
many thanks Sue for the design

Sue, how would this work for a quilt top if a bunch of these were made and pieced into a top? I bet a lot of scraps could get used up and have a pretty scrappy quilt at the same time. I am thinking just piece the "twist" (lots of them) and then join them. Then at wadding and backing to finish it off.

As I've put above, you would need squares as well.

its so good when two great minds think alike

Sue another great project. It is stunning. Oh for a bigger hoop!! Well done and thankyou for your free offer to all . Hope we see lots of projects :)

This project is adorable. I've sent you a PM just a short while ago. Thanks for sharing this. Sewhobby

Sue this is beautiful. I will send a PM for this design. Thanks in advance. Peg

Sue thank you so very much for sending your design to me. I have realized it's too large for my hoop 6X10, but will reduce it and see how it goes. Dreaming of a bigger hoop one day. LOL I've been a member here for several years, just don't post much, but do love to read from time to time and water the flower gardens. Thank you for not only touching my life with all your designs you so generously give and also the designs on Yoriko's site of which I have a membership. Because of you and all cute, and other digitizers you make embroidery and sewing fun for us and to those we give as gifts. You are special!!
Cyber huggers!

Looking good as usual!

That is a new and interesting pattern for a mug rug. I like it!

Oh my god..
thnx for info..

You are so clever Sue! Wonderful job! Hugs, Yoriko

Looks great Sue. Especially love the fabric you have used - very clever using the stripe part in the design. Will send you a PM. I have the Janome 11000 also. Awesome machine. Thank you for sharing, Lyn

Delightful in any combination of fabrics.

Hi Sue, thank you for offering the pattern/instructions. I would love it, please, but not sure how to send a PM. Mary

Thank you for offering this great design! I've been far away from my machine for 7 weeks and I miss it so much. I finally went to a fabric store today and touched a lot of fabric to help my withdrawal! You are most kind to all of us.

Just wanted to say Thank you again... I really appreciate all that you do. This is awesome.
Linda

Looks great! Would love to have it but my largest hoop is a 5x7. Thank you for the offer though.

It looks great Sue well done.

Very nice - great job you have done.

You have done a beautiful job! Thank you so much for offering to share with others. Your efforts are greatly appreciated, by me.

Auntie

Joking around and forgot to say how nice it is ,Sue.The big hoop girls will love it.

by darlingwife 01 Jan 2014

I just did mine 6x6. Can you do that size?

by toogie 04 Jan 2014

No,I have 5x7, so mine would end up coaster size.I agree with Sue, isn't worth doing that small.You loose the look.

Love the movement the colors give.

Brilliant! Aren't you clever? Love Chris

looks great

I'd like this pattern too. I have the Janome 11,000 machine with the 8X8 inch hoop.

Sue I would love to have the pattern..Where do I send you a PM..Thanking you
