I
love the Autumn season – so much fun to be had – especially if you are into
making mug rugs. (If you don’t know what
a mug rug is or why you should make one check out this posting.)
So I
thought I would share my collection of ten Halloween and Thanksgiving patterns especially made for this
season.
First
up is a nice and easy quilt-as-you-go pattern that uses seasonal 5" charm squares .....
The
good thing about this pattern is it isn’t just for the Autumn season – it can
be used all year round - even Christmas ......
If you fancy something a little more Halloweeny then bats may be just the thing....
If
you are short of time you could make a small 5” coaster for your desk or worktable ....
Find more Halloween Coasters HERE |
Every
Autumn home needs a pumpkin or two and the Primitive Pumpkin mug rug is perfect
to brighten the coffee table.......
Primitive Pumpkin |
You
can even rearrange the applique shapes to make an alternative shaped pumpkin –
now that is really neat ...... (details included in the book)
I’m
not keen on spiders except for this friendly chap – he can sit on my table
anytime he likes.....
Of
course it is Spooky Season and the Ghostly Duo are out in force.....
Spooooookkkkkyyyyy! |
You can also find easy-to-follow instructions HERE to turn these ghostly ghouls into a cute coaster .....
Perfect for a child's bedside table - or as hostess gifts over the Halloween season |
Another
pattern that can be used all year around is one of my favourites - the Moonlit Cat mug rug.......
(This pattern is also available individually in PDF format just click on the photo to go through to the pattern) |
This
pattern comes with an alternative cat applique for a totally different look
.....
Scaredy Cat is included in the book and with the individual pattern. |
Autumn
is all about ghosts and ghouls – there is also Pumpkin Pie and warming cups of
coffee .......
And
turkey for Thanksgiving (of course!) .......
Thanksgiving
brings us onto the last two patterns in the book – the Pilgrim Settler –
complete with pie and pumpkin .....
And
finally the Totem Pole mug rug.........
Did you know the word 'totem' means kinship? |
All
these patterns are available in one handy book – available in paperback format
from Amazon USA or Amazon UK. Also available for immediate download from the Patchsmith's Pattern Store on Etsy.
So
what are you waiting for – it is time to have some fabric fun this Autumn.
What an awesome fall collection of mug rugs AND or appliques for the fall season! I love that you give some choices on pumpkin and black cat shapes, too! I wish I had time to make them all this year!!
