Spring Mug Rug

I recently joined my First, Mug Rug Swap!
Align Center
I had Never even made a mug rug before
but I was seeing them all over blogland & really wanted to try it.
So...
this is my Very 1st Mug Rug, made for
Karin in Sweden!
I used a pre-pieced madras main fabric & then added
Polka Dots for the back & binding;)
I wanted to add a flower applique made from my new Cricut but,
I was running short on time so I made a Felt flower &
used the ZigZag for the stem & leaves.
I think it turned out pretty Cute for my 1st try:)
Then I wanted to add a little more Cute to the package
So, I made these Yummy felt Donuts!
I think they Look Good enough to Eat & Sooooo Easy:)
