mason jar mug rug

I have a love/hate relationship with Pinterest.... lots of beautiful pictures, too many temptations, not enough time, for sure there is no way I can make all the things I pinned! Sometimes, I like what I see so much, that I have to make it, right away, like in the case of this cute mason jar block from "bee in my bonnet" I had not sewed or quilted in a while, so it was a great little project, and there is always need for an extra mug rug! I did not have the pattern, so I sort of winged it, the jars are a little more square than I wanted, but it will do.

I like my mug rug extra wide, you know with space for a treat or something, so I place the mason jars on the side and added a cute little label, it was inspired by Amy's book: Sweetly stitched handmade, also known as Nana Company.

I just love the addition of the little label, now we shall see  how it survives all the spilling that will happen...
Happy sewing!
