Secret Sister Surprise

Needed a quick gift to give at our Secret Sister REVEAL party.  I only found out about it a day before I needed it.  Luckily I had some UFO blocks in my sewing room.  So I sewed them together for this oversize Mug Rug.  I think it looks great and especially with the oversize MUG that I picked up at Goodwill.  Was able to make a neat gift for nearly nothing.  It is the thought that counts anyway, right?  :-) 

The blocks are the Bow Tie blocks that are done with 5 squares of fabric.  It is a neat little shortcut technique.  If you'd like to give it a try, SEW DIVA DIANE, has a nice tutorial. Click here to link up to her page.
