My family is devoted to coffee. When my children are here with spouses, we have to make more than one (or two) pots of coffee every morning. So, I was delighted to get to design with the new
International Coffee Collection by Windham Fabrics.
I designed not one, not two, but THREE projects with these fabrics. I must like coffee, huh?
Here they are. First, the mug rugs:
Mug Rugs using
International Coffee measure about 7" finished (the motifs finish at 5-1/2"). I include a paper template for cutting the setting triangles. If you have a Tri-Recs ruler set, these will work perfectly.
Here is my own set of mug rugs using real fabric!
I was sent a panel that has four motifs on each end. These are used in those mug rugs. Great gifts and VERY quick and easy.
Here's the panel:
Then, I decided to make a table runner using four more coffee cup motifs and an appliquéd coffee pot I had in my files. What do you think?

International Coffee Table Runner: 36" x 22" |
Coffee Time Table Runner is also FREE. Check it out, with full size templates for that vintage coffee pot, which is 10" finished.
And, then I pulled out my tried-and-true coffee cup pattern (paper pieced). Remember, I shared the steps for this earlier this year:
Coffee Cups and Windham Wednesdays?

And a
single coffee cup using the Mimosa Collection by Windham. Click that link to see the steps to making these.
I designed this sweet little kitchen quilt. Five paper pieced blocks and four simplified Cobblestone blocks. The blocks are 7" finished and the quilt finishes at 35" x 35". What are you waiting for?
You can download the
Have a Cuppa wall quilt and make a trio of treasures for yourself or someone who loves coffee as much as you (or me).
Hi Debby,

ReplyDeleteHello Debby, Hubby and I are big time coffee drinkers, so I think each one of your quilt projects are fabulous! I can not wait to create the paper pieced coffee cups and the wall hanging! Thank you so much for sharing and have a fantastic day!
ReplyDeleteI never know exactly how to use panels like that, so a special thanks for your examples.
