Love Mug Mat
The Love Mug Mat is the fourth set in the Dollar Days Ten series. Thank you to everyone who preordered this series!
The Love Mug Mat was designed for the 4x4 hoop. The mat has two layers of fleece to hold in the warmth of the object placed upon it. You can insert the spices of your choice into your mug mat before sewing the small seam closed. Set your mug on the mat and as it warms, the aroma of your spices will be released into the air!
Spice mats are an extremely quick and easy in the hoop project! Each mat is made entirely in one hooping with just one small straight seam sewn closed by hand or machine upon completion.
The Love Mug Mat would make a great accompaniment to a Valentine Mug!
The Love Mug Mat takes only 3 color stops and 7 minutes stitching time!
