the terrific tassen teppich: an upcycled mug rug diy

Tassen Teppich (Mug Rugs in English) are marvelously quick scrap-busting creations that also make adorkable little gifts:

Break out your heap of scraps & let’s get making the terrific tassen teppich: an upcycled mug rug diy:

Chop out a few colourful scrappy squares + some leftover denim bits of similar size & shape.

Pop a denim bit & a scrappy square right sides facing and stitch together leaving one end open for turning.

Cut off any excess, turn right side out then fold & tuck the raw edged end back inside.

Top-stitch all the way around the outside edge to give your Teppich a nice clean border & close up that open end.

Add a wee bit of doodle stitching detail for fun.

And your done!

Go make a bunch more!

Create a few different sizes in matching fabric and use as a place setting, heat pads or as decorative table mats and even hot pot trivets!

A totally stylish way to enjoy a cuppa, don’tcha think?!
