Happy Monday! I just spent that last four hours making these super cute mug mats with a little help from my mother. Julia graduated* from high school on Friday, and she wants to give gifts to a few teachers and her guidance counselor. The underclassmen have a couple more days of final exams, so she's hoping to deliver these tomorrow.
When I was in Christmas Tree Shop a few weeks ago, I picked up a few mugs for $1 each with the thought that I could make matching mats for last minute gifts. Now I need to buy more!
I dug through my scrap bin of modern prints and pulled all the blues for this one. Pretty!
I'm not crazy about this green one, but it'll do.
I really like this bright one! I think it will go to the Environmental Biology teacher.
I'm excited to be linking up to Sew Modern Monday again! It's been a while. I hope to see you all again soon.
* I'll need to do a graduation post tomorrow.
