Lovely Frankenstein's 31 Days of Halloween: Ghost Mug Rug

Becky at Patchwork Posse has a good tutorial for making these cute ghost mug rugs.  These would be great gifts, plus what a fun use for your tiny, almost-threw-those-away scraps.

Lovely Frankenstein's 31 Days of Halloween: Pumpkin Crazy Quilt Mug Rug

I don't really use mug rugs (I don't do the coffee or tea thing...maybe hot chocolate though!) but these would be perfect seasonal coasters!  They're pretty easy and you could use some of those rarely-used stitches on your machine in some snazzy variegated thread...or metallic...hmm...

Lovely Frankenstein's 24 Days of Christmas: Scrappy Mug Rug with Pocket

I think it would be pretty cool if someone made one of these, popped a packet of coffee, tea or hot chocolate in the pocket, found a cute little spoon to put in there, rolled it all up and stuck it in a neat mug. Bam - awesome gift, especially for office parties or Secret Santa exchanges where you don't know the person particularly well. Or maybe you do know them well and you know they drink a lot of coffee/tea/hot chocolate! Either way :-) CLICK HERE for the tutorial and thank you to Jennifer for sharing!
