Mug Rugs!

Ok, so where have I been?  Just saw a picture of a "mug rug"
and fell in love with them.  Now, what I need to know is
how to make them and what are the sizes?  Are they
divided in equal portions for cup and small plate to hold
goodies? 
Can anyone help me with directions?  I'd love to make
some for friends and co-workers for Christmas but need
help as I've only seen pictures.

Thanks, Nola

  5. I'm in a mug rug exchange and pretty much anything goes. For the one I made, I paper pieced two 4inch blocks and made a little 'quilt' of them. You can see it on my blog.

    Also, this is the link for photos of mug rugs.

  7. I made mine 5 X 9 inches. They are so much fun and a great way to use those scraps.
