Quilt as You Go Mug Rug // TUTORIAL!

[@connieolson8497]

Love kitty’s addition to the video

[@Jennifer85987]

love your tutorials, especially the little "beginner friendly" projects, I'm 62 and I'm a beginner to that wonderful sewing hobby ... still struggling with binding though 🫣🤣 thanks for all the time you take to help all of us out here ... Love from Germany, Danielle

[@roseambrose7971]

Love that fabric. Nice little gift.❤️

[@amysphotosmidura2600]

I love all your tutorials! You make me want to do all these fun projects! I started quilting/sewing when I turned 48- a year and a half after my precious granny passed away. Every summer I would stay 2 weeks with her. I would sit at her feet while she quilted, crocheted, knitted ,embroidered, needlepointed. Yet I never desired to do any of it until it was too late. I inherited her sewing machine (it needs serviced for sure) so I bought a beginners singer and haven’t looked back! I’ve done 2 quilts, a table runner, numerous pj bottoms and pillow cases and one bag! Every time I see I can feel my granny. I’ve even smelled her late one evening. I know she would be so proud of me! Thank you for all you do! You an amazing teacher! 💗

[@psucolleen]

Your tutorials are FABULOUS. I especially appreciate the pace of them. So many other tutorials I watch are dragged out and last 3 times longer than they should. It seems they approach every one of them as though every viewer has no basic knowledge. That's great for beginner tutorials but doing every one of them like that is just not necessary. You get right to it, give us the supplies and jump right in. Your style is so appreciated and I'm completely drawn to everything you post. They're clear & concise without the extra chatter & fluff. Please keep it going! Thanks so much! :)

Beautiful

[@carolynthomas4527]

This was so easy and cute, thanks for the video

[@marquesn77]

This was a perfect little tutorial, I’ve been out of the sewing game for some time and this will be perfect to get going again

[@Cheryl4110]

You made this look sew easy! 😂😂. but for real, thank you. I'm going to give this project a try! Thank you for your video.

[@SharonDraughon]

That is the easiest way to do binding that I've ever seen! Can't wait to try that method on my next project. Thanks for your tutorials!

[@audreyderby7638]

Erica says we can always put binding on BACK first when machine sewing binding…?

[@audreyderby7638]

Also*…not always. Sorry

[@sharonderksen952]

These tutorials are great, great information and straight to the point. Thank you! ❤

[@julialandman2638]

What a brilliant way to use up scraps! You make attaching the binding look so easy! Well done and thank you for giving us this project!

[@shaleemusic]

Absolutely what I needed to see. As a beginner sewer, I wanted to watch something that felt "do-able" for my first try at creating something. Terrific!

[@janinebell763]

Hank you for that mug rug.

[@suzanajames3278]

Thank you so much! I love smaller projects ☺️ Learning new technologies is much easier for a beginner on these types of projects, keep them coming…💚

[@henny5272]

Hermoso como todo tu trabajo. Amo ese gato-🌹

[@tiffanysaller476]

This would be great for laying your scissors on to keep from scratching a wood sewing machine cabinet. I made something similar but this is much cuter. Thanks for a great tutorial.

[@mariawells8026]

This would make a sweet gift for a quilt bee, a tea or any gathering you want to have a gift for your friends.

[@sheilataylor4479]

I absolutely love this

[@hornsnogle]

Great project for beginners and more advanced sewers. Thank you!

[@sinaiyahyisrael3713]

Great tutorial! I almost paid $30 for a class on mug rugs at a fabric store! This was easy!

[@colleenisaac8621]

No!!! Now I want to make this! I’m going through some of my UFO’s but keep seeing new things I want to make! Love this!

[@triciamcfarland8823]

Colleen Isaac I say that all the time too🤣 Ended up making a folder for projects I want to make “in the future”💗

[@alisonmiller3314]

You make everything look so easy! And fun!

[@kcinnasarc]

Very helpful tutorial, thank you Erica ! Love your cat (I'm a cat lover, have 4) take care !

[@carmensluter283]

[@micheleperez9779]

Super Bello, Gracias por Compartir tus conocimientos, un Abrazo desde Venezuela.-

[@wickens9221]

[@angiemcdermid4845]

Really the best tutorial and fun.

[@ncee1372]

Love!! Straight to the point tutorial and easy to follow! Than you !!

[@maryhinojosa5975]

Made one for my Mom, Thank you for sharing. Love it. 👍🙄

[@GewoonelsJustels]

I love this! I wish this kind of gift would be appreciated where I live in the Netherlands that is. I would certainly have made a bunch

[@teminus1]

I am so intimidated by quilting but I absolutely LOVE your method!!! I'm not a huge quilter but I do have a lot of extra fleece lying around so I'm planning on using it as a substitute! So excited to make some gifts and use up all the scraps I have!

[@DebbieCountryCrafters]

Love it! 🙏 Thank you! You make it seem so easy🌸

[@susancole5210]

Excellent tutorial. You are so clear with your instructions. Thank you.

[@sandrapolizzi629]

Love it and love your fabrics!

[@susanbosher2492]

Another fun project! Thank you. It will be my first time trying QAYG and I can’t wait!!

[@emarie7591]

This one is my absolute favorite! I’m making these as “Galentine” gifts for my girlfriends! Muah! Thanks for sharing !

[@faithers84]

SUPER CUTE!!! I also love these QAYG tutorials, TYSM!!

[@SharoninKentucky]

Fun, cute as a button. I have some fabric I was using for mask. I think I could give this a try. Thanks lots

[@deelankford1180]

Sister, THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@karenhickey3377]

LOVE this!!! Thank you for another amazing Tutorial 🥰

[@PinkyJapan]

Never quilted anything before but going to give this a go! Very easy and helpful tutorial. Thank you so much!!

[@Candyfsu]

Thank you for showing the whole project rather than stop at binding. As a newbie to QAYG, it's very helpful. I also saw a video where the backing was used for the binding - rather than a separate piece of fabric. That's an idea for future tutorials.

[@dorothygriffiths6626]

Thank you Erica I love your channel and came to sewing late in life after I retired. These little projects are just perfect for using up fabrics and making fun little things - as we are all in lockdown I am making Christmas projects in readiness to see for our local hospice charity. Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent and expertise and keeping us all going. You are really appreciated thank you. Keep safe Everyone. Big hugs and loves from the U.K. xxxxxxxx Dorothy 🙋🏻❤️😘🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

[@susangenry6497]

Erica I so love your tutorials..I look back at a lot of them..but watch nearly every day for new stuff. Your pinwheel quilt is my fav..and love this mug rug....great gift!!!

[@sherryw-ponyluv-er2394]

Exactly the project I was looking for. Working on Christmas ideas!

[@anixa00ify]

Great project! A mug rug for me and for my daughters a Barbie quilt. Thanks for sharing

[@erica_arndt]

Yes, and make it a little bigger and you have a doll quilt too! :)

[@ritamckenna-cohen8075]

Excellent tutorial. Just gearing back into sewing and quilting after making masks. This looks like a fun and quick project. Thank you.

[@louiselovescrafting6802]

Me too! I hadn't sewn very much for a while but made a lot of masks. It got me back into sewing! I have quite a few small pieces of fabric that will work just great for making mug rugs. They will make great gifts! Thanks!

[@ambermyers4256]

I am definitely making these for Christmas presents this year. Thank you so much for this tutorial! 🎄🥰

[@quiltfreak64]

Thank you so much. They’re adorable. Can’t wait to make some for shut ins

[@gregoryburnett5517]

I just made some mug rugs today for the first time, but I wanted to see how you sewed the binding. It gives it a finished look. Thank you. Sandra B.

[@countrybonnetsoaps5256]

Love this tutorial. Thanks for getting straight to the point and not blabbing for 10 mins before you get started! Thank you! Making one today! #newsewer

[@Angie-ik3je]

Thank you so much for this diy tutorial. I've never quilted before but I love the look of it!!! ♥️

Great for Xmas presents!

[@imaamericangirl1406]

Thank you! Fantastic tutorial!

[@lyndabaillargeon4955]

Thank you love so much your easy video for beginners like me. Hope you will do more quilt as you go projects. Be safe!

[@kimberlyprice2]

I cannot say enough how happy I am to have found your tutorials. I have been a garment sewist for years and am just now curious about making quilts. I just pieced my first mug rug for my brother who is in assisted living and loves coffee. It is not exactly perfect by any means but he will love it. I am trying to learn with small projects first. I have cut a lot of denim squares from old jeans that I want to make guy quilts out of. One day at a time.

[@susanhill514]

You did a great job thank you this helped a bunch

[@julichambers2822]

Love love love your super fast n easy method AND concise easy instructions without droning on and on about nonessential stuff. Keep up the good work! Thanks! This is exactly what I needed right ‘this minute. I subscribed 😀

[@ellenkennedy796]

Fantastic tutorial Erica. Simple, straightforward, and pretty! Love your channel! Xxx

[@lynetteperry3559]

[@RebeccaRohrHome]

I love how you did the binding, I definitely will be doing my binding that way, thanks for sharing.

[@Quiltycrazy]

Meadowhill Home & DIY Me too. That’s way easier than the way I’ve been doing it.

I am too. I first saw it done this way on Julia's channel. What a time saver.

[@rainydaydiva6320]

[@quilt4fun]

[@bethdeck9825]

Love this !!! Love all your tutorials...you’ve taught me so much!

[@marlenesalamandyk878]

So cute! Just making mug rugs from leftover fabric from making knitting baskets for my sisters and this is perfect

[@carolg.6838]

I like these type of creative projects that be made relatively quickly with what we have on hand. Your mug rug is very pretty. Thanks.

[@dianr4210]

Really cute!

[@pamistyle]

this is amazing! will give it a go soon! thanks for sharing!

[@Thisisit120]

It was so good to see you today

[@bobbiek2960]

I’ve been making masks and I’ve wanted to make something else on my down time. I love this!!

[@kimberlyrobertson8483]

Excellent tutorial. Thank you

[@danielploszkiewicz1058]

How cute is this? I discovered your channel a few weeks ago when searching for face mask tutorials (which, by the way, yours was the best I found). I haven’t used a sewing machine since Home Ec in middle school, so I’m basically a total beginner. Your tutorials are excellent. They’re easy to follow even for someone with little or no experience, you do a great job demonstrating and explaining and I love that you don’t waste time with rambling stories, jokes that aren’t funny, etc. Cant wait to try some of your other projects!

[@erica_arndt]

Thanks so much! I’m glad you like it!

[@karenkoutsoumbaris6308]

I love your channel. Thankyou so much

[@erica_arndt]

Thanks so much!

[@audreyderby5926]

Your QAYG is so neat! My. Scraps are all over the place…up, down, across one corner, past the top..on an angle, etc. a real "scrappy" deal…lol

[@gregoryburnett5517]

This so helpful. Thank you. Sandra B.

[@BeatlesFanSonia]

That looks like fun and easy! I’m going to make this but a little larger. Maybe the size of a sheet of printer paper!

[@megroux]

So cute!

[@graydaimond55]

Thank you so much 🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷

[@jackihattle5855]

This is so cute. Thanks for this video.
