How to Hang a Mug Rug After Making One

A mug rug is basically a super mini quilt that is about the right size for a coffee and a biscuit or something – like 6″ x 9″ or thereabouts.

How to Hang a Mug Rug

I thought I would share it here as it could also be helpful to you if you have been the recipient of a mug rug and you’d rather hang it on your wall.

Hidden Hanging Loops & Buttons

I took two leftover pieces of binding strip – 2.5″ wide.

STEP 1

STEP 2

I folded them right sides together and sewed lengthways.

STEP 3

I then used a safety pin and chopstick to turn my fabric tubes right side out.

STEP 4

I cut the strips into 2 4″ pieces per mug rug. So I had made two mug rugs, so I cut 4 strips of 4″ long.

STEP 5

I then folded each strip in half to create a loop and used my sewing machine’s button foot to create a button hole about half way down each loop.
