The colors you chose are so lovely & you can't go wrong with a partial seams hexagon block!
ReplyDeleteHi Deb...I have my cups tea every morning, thanks for the giveaway
ReplyDeleteI'm a hot black tea drinker. I love this mug rug and think the larger size (I made some potholders using a similar pattern and they had two rounds after the hexi and only measure 9") is so cool.

ReplyDeletephoebewolf5@hotmail.com
You had me at "hexie". Lately, it has been English Breakfast in my mug. I bought one today (to stash quilty tools in) that is big enough to take a bath in. That much caffeine in one day and I would be wired for a week.
ReplyDeleteHmmm..... maybe that would get me going?
That mug rug is AWESOME! Thanks for the quick tute. I'd gladly set my morning coffee mug on it - filled with COFFEE of course!
ReplyDeleteI love my morning coffee! And setting it on a gorgeous mug rug like this would make it even more delightful. Thanks for the great tutorial and for the chance to win this beautiful fabric. I love what you did with the scraps too. Thanks also for your wonderfully inspiring blog!
ReplyDeleteLove your take on the hexi! I prefer coffee in my mug, but not until lunchtime ( so I can make it through the rest of the day!).
ReplyDeleteCoffee is a must have in the morning! I love your mug rug design using this beautiful fabric!

Been a tea drinker for a long time, but enjoy a cafe au lait with hubby on weekend mornings. Love the fussy-cut center on the block!
ReplyDeleteI drink a big mug of tea, and a small of coffee :) The fabrics and the mug rug is lovely!
ReplyDeleteBlack coffee so it has to taste good as well as wake me up. My husband knows better than to talk to me before I've had my coffee.
ReplyDeleteno question, coffe the fussie cut bird in the center is wonderful!
ReplyDeletethanks for the giveaway,
shoshana s5821140@gmail.com
It used to be coffee, but as I've gotten older I can't always tolerate coffee, so many mornings it is tea.

ReplyDeleteI've got fat free half & half in my coffee this morning. My husband likes it really strong so I need a little something to cut it down a bit. I love both the fabric and your technique of using partial seams for the hexie twist. I've got to try that!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful collection and a lovely mug rug. Coffee and cream and quilting is my dream!
ReplyDeleteDebby, I think this block is a perfect representation of you - both the fabric itself and the style of the block. I always have a huge mug of water, followed rapidly by two huge mugs of coffee with Almond Joy creamer. YUM. Thank you for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteReally pretty fabric. I put coffee in mug early in the morning and then tea the rest of the day. Thanks for the wonderful giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI put flavored coffee in my mug every morning... evening time it gets a bit o'Baileys! Looking forward to making your mug rug!

ReplyDeleteWonderful mug rug. My morning beverage: at work is herbal tea with one sugar. I am trying to get that down to zero sugar but, baby steps. At home: a slushie with juice, crushed ice, fruit, pumpkin meal and homemade vanilla. Healthy and delicious.
ReplyDeleteI put cream in my coffee...cinnamon flavored at Christmas time...and one packet of Stevia. I love the mug rug!!
ReplyDeleteWell........ I'm sorry to say I'm not a coffee drinker anytime of day. However, you mug rug would look wonderful with my tall glass of water on it.....
ReplyDeleteAwesome mug rug. Will look great under my morning protein shake. DawnPP@aol.com
ReplyDeleteTea! I am in love with Earl Grey Tea by Do Ghazal https://www.amazon.com/Do-Ghazal-Earl-Grey-Tea/dp/B00L1TBZV2 And I do need a mug rug. I gifted a bunch but need to make one for myself.
ReplyDeleteLove your mug rug design, Debby! Hexies are so versatile! The fabrics play nicely together, the colors are pleasant and soothing, and the mug rug size is just right for under my morning super-sized mug of tea, Earl Grey, hot. It would also work well with the mid-day coffee. Thanks as always for inspiration, instructions, and a chance to win your giveaways. (janeherbst at roadrunner dot com).
ReplyDeleteLove your mug rug! I love mug rugs...and use one with my morning cup of coffee with really good vanilla creamer.

That is one great mug rug. I must try that twisted hexagon -- I've probably said it before but one day I really will. The bird looks great in the middle. My morning drink is tea -- hot if it cold out and cold if it is hot out. And, my mug rugs get used for mugs and glasses.
ReplyDeleteYour hexagon mug rug over on Sew in Love with Fabric is fabulous! Birds and nature motifs are favorites of mine. I drink coffee in the morning -- lots of coffee!
ReplyDeleteCoffee in the morning! Love the mug rug.
ReplyDeleteI love this technique! What a great mug rug and I am in love with the colors!

Hi, Debby, I thought I commented last night, but I guess I only looked! That's gorgeous fabric, and I will love seeing what you do with it. I'll head over to Sew In Love shortly. I don't use a mug very often. Sometimes for hot chocolate or herbal tea in the winter. My morning drink is 4 oz. of orange juice in a glass. =)

Coffee! I'm a coffee girl! 💙 The hexie mug rug!
ReplyDeleteI love making mug rugs but hadn't even thought about making a hexagon-shaped one. How unique! I put hot tea in my mug and must confess to having quite a collection of both mugs and tea.
ReplyDeleteIt would be tea if I didn't have a baby who loves knocking my cups over!
ReplyDeleteI love the hexagon mug rug. The colors go so nicely together. Thank you for the tutorial. Only green tea in my mug in the morning. jarvenpa1ne at gmail dot com
