As the big day draws near it is time to end Twelve Mug Rugs of Christmas.  I hope you have enjoyed the mug rug show.  

So now, all we have to do is find somewhere to hang the stockings.  Where better than on a friendly reindeer or two or three!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

Twelve Mug Rugs of Christmas - Day Eleven – Three Kings Mug Rug

The gifts are wrapped, the food is ordered and the mince pies are made.  Whilst the shops are ramping it up this is the time I slow it down.  And in slowing it down, I have time to remember the real gift of Christmastime.

The Three Kings Mug Rug pattern is another of the  ten seasonal patterns found in The Patchsmith’s Christmas Mug Rugs book – available for immediate download from my

Craftsy Store or from my Etsy Store.

Twelve Mug Rugs of Christmas - Day Nine - Personalised Mug Rug

I cannot think of one Gran in the whole wide world who wouldn’t love to receive a handmade gift at Christmas.  Nor Mother, Father, friend or relative either.

And when you are finished making Christmas gifts from Christmas charm squares with my Mug Rug Alphabet pattern you can whip up a skinny table topper for the Christmas table.   

I traced the letters onto fusible webbing so that they were touching each other.  I then cut out 'Christmas' all as one piece.

The Mug Rug Alphabet pattern is available as an individual pattern.  It comes with three full sets of alphabets so you will never be stuck for personalising a last-minute gift. You can find it with all my other patterns in my 

Craftsy Store or from my Etsy Store.

Twelve Mug Rugs of Christmas - Day 8- JOY Mug Rug

JOY TO THE WORLD .....

They say that a small action in one part of the world can have consequences in another, far-away place. 

I don’t know if it is true but today I am going to spread joy to each and every person I meet - be it a smile, a coin in a collection pot, a kind word, a compliment or a mug rug gift.  

And with each deed I will send a silent prayer of peace out into the world.

Mug Rug Alphabet Letters added to 5" Charm Squares

The true spirit of Christmas is never far away at this time of the year.

And if you are creating a gift basket for a friend, relative or family-in-need then you might as well make it quick and quilty .......
