Wonky tea cups

Posted on 05/02/2023 by Helen

It feels good to have my sewing machine set back up. I spent the week making this cute Missouri Star pattern with 3 mug rugs. For some reason the cups ended a little wonky, especially the ones made with the strips. I think it might have been bad cutting. Not sure what I’m going to do with the bigger quilt, because I was mostly after the mug rugs, but I’m sure I’ll find a home for it somewhere.

Very pretty, and on this cold weekend a nice warm cup of coffee or tea would be very welcome.

  Thanks, it is summer here and we are having a bit of a heatwave, so only cold drinks in my cups I’m afraid

    Too funny. Yes, iced drinks in summer for sure. We had -48°F wind chills over the weekend so I was thinking hot. 🙂

    Cripes – that’s very cold. I’d send you some of our sunshine if I could

I did not notice the wonkiness, I think they look great!
