Poinsettia Mug Rug/Coasters...Had to digitize something to go with the Holly!! The first photo was my first test stitch-out...(the green ones are the back sides) Then a small change for the 2nd stitch-out...Can you see the difference in the two? Which one do you prefer? I am pleased with the results and they look lovely with the Holly Mug Rug/Coasters...I am also showing the back side...Love that they are quilted through!

I just love the detail that you applied both are wonderful but I can understand the one with only the center stitching gives the eye of break. Excellent job on both.

Beautiful. I prefer the second one as it gives a bit of a contrast between the two layers of leaves.
I have yet to stitch mine - the garden needed a lot of attention after having been neglegted for two weeks.

I like the one with the extra stitching on the Petals. But must say if not shown both would have thought the other was just perfect. In other words both are just great.

Thanks, Barb...I think I prefer the one with only the inner petal stitching...hmmm....but I do have both options!

Perfect as always. They would be so awesome in the Christmas decor.
Sorry I can not tell the difference between first stitch out and second.. possibly due my aging eyes. To me they both look great.

What I spy [I think] is perhaps a different direction of the centers and the larger petals are not quilted through?? Both are just as lovely as the other.

Another lovely design and stitchout. They are both pretty, but I think I prefer the one without the stitching in the outer petals, I might even be tempted to leave out the quilting on the inner petals too and just have the veins on the leaves stitched through. Of course if the red fabric used was plain, I would definitely want the stitching. Isn't it fun to play around with design elements..
1 comment

Thanks for your kind comments...and yes, playing is part of the fun...I have done some without the stitching on the petals...they are a bit "fluffier" than these...not compressed with the stitches...

Lovely. I love poinsettias. Both are gorgeous but I put my vote to the second one with less fill stitches. :-)
