Tea for 2

Finished up my 2 mug rugs... and attempted to photograph them in a fun tea-party way.
This is a rather awkward picture...
I'm not sure I succeeded in the photographing.
  Sorry about that.
I wanted to show you these cool labels I purchased!
They say "the wendy city" and they are exactly perfect to sew into binding.  love them.
You can get some for yourself right here!
So I used the mug rugs as a way to "audition" quilting styles before I tackle the giant quilt.  Here's the one done in a small stipple pattern.

And here's the one done in pebbles.

What do you think?  Do you prefer one over the other?

  4. I like them both. What a great way to practice the machine quilting. Do you have a pattern for your mug rugs that you can share?
