I've always been amazed by the light spectrum. All those pretty colors hidden inside every single ray of light! And how rainbows make them shine! With this rainbow mug rug I can have one around me every time I want to. And so can you. Or you can make it in different shades of your favorite color.
The pattern comes in size 6“ for the mug-only square version and 6“ x 8.5“ with a sidebar, each one with a right handed and a left handed version and with a coloring sheet. The individual sections are clearly labeled and have a ¼“ seam allowance. There are no curves or y-seams. The pattern comes as PDF files in A4 and US Letter paper format.
This pattern is a beginner friendly foundation paper piecing (FPP) pattern that assumes only little basic knowledge of paper piecing. It does not include detailed FPP instructions, but it has instructions for turning it into a mug rug. You can find lots of free tutorials for the various FPP methods online.
AnneT – neurodiverse creative chaos
creations of a neurodiverse mind
I grew up with the sound of my mum's and grandma's sewing machines and have been sewing since my teenage years. Focused on clothes and accessories first a few years ago I caught the patchwork virus and have been hooked up ever since.
Meanwhile I create my own designs and write patterns for traditional piecing and foundation paper piecing in English and German for beginners and advanced sewers. I love to experiment with different colors and designs and to see what others create with my ideas.
