Progress

Here are my four Valentine mug rugs in progress. You've seen the bonbon one, the others are Urban Threads (the heartwood tree and swirly heart) and the tulip heart is a freebie from Kreations by Kara. Now to get them finished ....

Thanks everyone!
Sewhobby - the piecing is my own as I wanted to match some things I had with that fabric, so cut a few of the "not square fabric squares" that are on the right (which ended up knocking me off spacing wise a bit - I hadn't checked how "not square" the fabric design was). The quilting stitches are from a Five Star fonts set "candle mats" that I have. I like to make them as large as my hoop and use the hoop outline to tack down my binding strips. Sometimes I use quilting stitches from Embroidery Library sashiko sets. I keep a Flickr album that has a lot of the mug rugs I've done http://www.flickr.com/photos/ceodraiocht/ .
