Mug Insert Organizer

About a year ago (yes, a year ago) I bought a pattern to make these cute little fabric inserts for coffee mugs that are perfect for organizing pens and crafting tools. My sister in law brought me a truck load (yes, a truck load of crafting materials that had belonged to her deceased mother in law. I was going through some of this stuff and found about a dozen of those quilted double sided placemats we used to make. And voila, a project done!! Yay me! I am getting better at finishing what I start.

So this is my hubby's favorite mug, I will be scoping some of those quarter mugs I see at yard sales next time I go yard saling!

And this is the mug cover organizer I made using that old placemat. I wouldn't have chosen those patterns together but that's what was in the box, so I put it to use.

This is what it looks like on the mug and with a few of my crafting tools in it.

I actually made several of these using up most of those placemats.

Here is an inside view.

Now on to the next project!

May your troubles be few and your blessings be many! Mel

NOTE:
I just had to show you the mug inserts I made using some old denim jeans and scrap fabric!

I left the edges raw, I just sewed around the edges to stop the fabric from fraying but I really like the way they turned out. So far I've made two of these and I'm working on a couple more using pink floral print fabric on the denim. I'll post pics when they're finished.
