Spool Love Sewing Mug Rug Pattern

Mug rug tutorial

This mug rug tutorial features something a little different you might not have tried before – paper piecing. Perfect size to try this technique out, or super quick little project if you are already skilled.

You can also use the paper-piecing pattern and tutorial to make more spools in a mini wall quilt or a table runner too!

You will need:

• The pattern
• background (gray), 1 about 4″ x 5″, 2 about 3″ x 1.5″, 4 about 1″ x 1.5″
• spool “thread” (pink or color of your choice), 2 about 3″ x 2″, 2 about 1″ x 3.5″
