QUILTER'S MUG


I belong to a couple of guilds:  Quilters by the Sea in Long Beach and Orange Grove Quilters Guild in Garden Grove.  For Christmas OGQG gave their members this beverage mug.


What a great idea.  Quilters make it their own and at the same time quit adding those paper or Styrofoam cups to the land fill.  I decided to make selvedge fabric.


And, here is my personal quilter's mug, ready to take with me to the February meeting.


 I love it. Now to remember to take it with me; and to remember to bring it home. But, I’m going to try real hard.

Quilt happy,

Marilyn

I love it too! So creative to use the selvages. :) Hope you come back home with it.

Love the selvages. The reusable mug is a good thing. At our guild meetings we have to bring our own mugs or pay a fine of 25 cents.

Great! Didn't know you were collecting selvages! The guild must have money to buy everyone a mug!! Or it is a tiny guild??

Cute! I briefly thought of making these to sell. I have a bunch of them in storage. I really like yours--since I'm a total sucker for selvages!
