Mug rugs have become so popular lately! For the past couple years they are by far my biggest pattern sellers. This is probably for many reasons. They are super easy to make, they can be made using your favorite techniques (hand or machine), they make great gifts, and they can be decorative as well as functional. Most of all, they are so much fun, or in January's case, it's SNOW much fun! I hope you will follow us along here on our Mug Rug of the Month Tutorial.\u00a0 For more holiday mug rug patterns, as well as everyday patterns, stop by my Craftsy Shop<\/a> or Etsy Shop<\/a>.<\/p>\n
