I have gone back to basics with these mugrugs. The design is from tajtiana at her stickbaer blog. I think strip ITH is easier for me than applique cutting ITH, so I am all for Sue's new projects, the redwork pieces are stitchouts, and since I have yet to hand close them they are still UFO's. Do we have an acronym for completed works?

Nice job...I have coined this method my "strip and flip"...I used this for my hexagon mug rugs...and I like it better for some things...and the reverse applique for others...nice to have a choice!

It is nice to have both, both have advantages and constraints so I will have both in my library and many frames to put around! I should be so organized. Lol! I need to try a decorative stitch, You are too cool! You have many great pieces. I think the hexmug mat is on my list, I thought I did not like this method, It is fussy cut and fussy place

Nicely done! I like your fabric choices that go with the designs. Let's see...WIP work in progress, but I don't think I know of anything for "done."

Lovely :) Completed work is referred to as an FO (as in Finished Object .. not what I just realised FO usually stands for *gasp* lol) xXx

Thank you Vicki, many of my stitchouts will not fit in this scenario or I would be a happy stitcher!

I like WIP better than UFO, because UFO feels like its lost.
