I decided I wanted to work on a little fall project - a leaf mug rug. I looked on Pinterest, but never did find what I envisioned, so I decided I needed to do my own thing. I found a piece of paper, a pencil and a Sharpie marker and started to work.
First I drew a leaf shape. It wasn't quite the shape I wanted so I did have to do a bit of editing!
Next I added the veins.
Then I used my Sharpie Marker to draw in my lines, leaving a 1/8 inch gap where the veins are.
Since I will be using fusible web, I turned my drawing over and traced the lines on the back for my templates.
Then I got out the fusible web and traced my pattern onto the paper side of the web.
I pulled out my fall fabrics and had a great time picking and choosing the fabrics for my leaf and in the end here is how my Mug Rug came out:
I was so happy with it, I decided to write up a pattern! You can get it in my Etsy shop - Leaf Mug Rug.
Are you thinking of fall yet?
