I just finished my favorite Mug Rug so far. I have a mug rug pattern using bees and I also have some really cool yellow fabric with bees buzzing all over it.
I've made this pattern before with a different center to the star block. This time it's all about the bee's!
I did some fussy cutting of just the bees and scattered them about the beehive.
I assembled the three different bee designs.
Then I quilted with a meandering pattern that, in my mind, replicates the dance that bees do for each other to direct them to the best flowers. I finished with a coordinating green with tiny flowers.
And I love it!
