I'm addicted....

I have definitely become addicted to "mug rugs".  It is fun to
browse through  blogs and see the creativity that is out there.
Have been wanting to do something with my "dresden" ruler
so today decided I'd make a mug rug using the ruler. 
Couldn 't believe how fast these little things worked up and
how much fun it was.  Love the ruler!











Was going to face them in opposite corners, but then
decided to sew them together into a "sunburst"...at
least that's what it looks like to me. Think it turned out
ok.  Thought about just doing one, but it didn't seem
big enough and I wasn't sure what would look good
with it.

Have also been knitting  hats for my grandchildren.

















Now if I can just crochet a flower to go on this for
Hailey.  I  could go buy one, but I want to see if I
can make it myself.  A friend at work gave me a pattern
and it doesn't look too difficult.  Just hope when I get
them finished, the kids will wear them!

Have a good day!

    I love your mug rugs, it's such a wonderful way to use up those boxes of fabric that everyone seems to have! I love the "sunburst", reminds me of Spring . . . remember Spring??

    Your hat is adorable! I have a pattern for crocheted roses - I will e-mail it to you, very easy.
