Celebrate! A New Mug Rug Pattern

This weekend I've got something to celebrate...

I've launched my new PDF pattern

for a fun and fresh new mug rug,

called...Celebrate!

I've gotta tell you that I didn't really plan

for this to be my next pattern,

but I've had the idea in my mind for a long time.

It came to life when

I made a kitchen-themed basket

for my son's Relay for Life team to raffle,

and I made this little mug rug as part of the prize.

I began with a Divided Basket

from my beloved Noodlehead pattern,

in a turquoise and lime color scheme.

I added a bunch of fun turquoise and lime stuff, 

like napkins, a silicone trivet,

a candle, some straws, and some picnic plates.

Here's the back of the basket.

See that Denyse Schmidt print I picked up at my JoAnn store?

I featured it, adding a sweet lime polka dot

and a fabulous turquoise chevron from Riley Blake!

I filled it with some more handmade goodies...

a stay-put tea towel

and some pretty coasters.

I know you want to see more of those coasters, right?

I whipped them up using my own Moda Bake Shop tutorial.

I'm hoping the winner of the basket

will feel happy each time she uses it.

:)

When I made my little mug rug,

I took some photos and made some notes...

and now I've got the pattern ready for sale!

There's something for everyone here...

a bit of applique using fusible webbing...

And a wee bit of embroidery...

All tied together with some bright binding.

You can find the Celebrate Mug Rug pattern 

in my pattern shop on Craftsy.

{Craftsy is running a sale all weekend

in honor of Memorial Day...

even more reason to celebrate!}

It's also available in my shop on Etsy,

called eamylove.
