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?!
