Mug Rug: a really honkin’ big coaster that can fit a mug of tea or coffee, and a special little treat on it. Or, for those of us that are accident prone and messy, a coaster big enough that even if you have a major slopping incident, it stays contained.
I figured it was about time to make some mug rugs to give away, so I ended up making these beauties as little bonuses for my parents for Christmas gifts. There is one each for my dad, stepmother, and mom. I’m pretty pleased with the results, and can see a fairly huge mug rug collection in my very near future. They are such a great way to use up some of these millions of scraps I have floating around!

Here is how they were wrapped up and displayed. Non of my parents seemed to be able to navigate them…
