How to Make a Mug Rug (w/ a quick binding lesson)

Amanda sews you through a Quilt As You Go (QAYG) mug rug/ mug mat tutorial! Great scrap buster!

[@bethfoley84]

Thank you for your clear, slow explanations and instructions. Sometimes how-to videos seem to go too fast or assume a viewer already understands.

[@thequiltingbea]

You are so welcome! We try very hard to not make any assumptions about skill levels and show you every step! 🙂

[@lindamartin2073]

Appreciate your kindness showing us how to make thanks you ❤

[@katielin2379]

I like the quilt as you go. Your fabric pieces are so colorful.

[@thequiltingbea]

Thank you! They are all fabrics we carry in our little quilt shop here in Massillon, OH! 💕🐝

Wil try this as soon as I can. thank you.

[@kimkees9419]

Love this will have to try.

[@pollyconner3864]

Already have enough scrap to try this! thanks

[@danahammes1386]

This is great!!! I kept looking for a rug mat that top and backing were quilted at the same time. All at once looks nice.😊

[@lbond2349]

Thanks for the tutorial. Will give this a try.

[@tamikiabrodeur965]

I can’t wait to try to make one of these. Thank you for showing me how!

[@jessi4959]

You are a very good teacher 😅

[@SBL1932]

Loved your video. It was well demonstrated

[@theresalaboda3569]

Thank you. Great tutorial.

I like to keep some large shallow Amazon boxes to put my projects in when I spray with adhesive. Keeps all the overspray contained.

[@thequiltingbea]

That’s a great idea!!!

[@musicmexicanna6105]

thanks for explaining this so clearly. Now it seems less daunting 👍

[@KelleysQuiltsandCruises]

Excellent instructions. 😀 I love making mug rugs, but I am always ready for another idea. I’ve never actually done the QAYG method before.

[@MonaDidWhat]

Cute, thanks for sharing

[@roseannegibson3343]

Great tutorial

[@astorybookfinish5055]

Great tutorial! I bet it’s not too dissimilar to make a burping cloth.

[@mvpwest]

Love the table attached to your machine! Where did you find that? Love the mug rug tutorial too! Easy to follow.. Thanks!

[@thequiltingbea]

It’s a great extension! You can find it on Amazon and they cut to your machine. They will contact you after you order to get your machine info. Sold by Precision Sewing Machines in LA. It’s A Sew Steady acrylic extension table.

@@thequiltingbea Thank you for the speedy reply! 😃

[@rosaliepingree4198]

A nice fast mug rug. Good instructions, but the sound of the bracelets against the sewing surface were a bit distracting.

[@thequiltingbea]

I know I’m sorry! I’m going to see if I can reduce that noise a bit because it wasn’t until the replay that I realized how loud they were! 😳

[@rosaliepingree4198]

@@thequiltingbea That's OK I'm a new subscriber and am looking forward to more project tutorials. Pittsburgh, PA

[@danahammes1386]

Could you do place matts the same way and then add binding ?

[@thequiltingbea]

You absolutely could!

[@carolcurtis2220]

I found all your bling very distracting😱

[@thequiltingbea]

Sorry about that! I didn’t realize how much it was clanging until after it published and it can’t get reduced… but I’ve stripped it off for future videos 👍🙏

[@carolcurtis2220]

Thank you
