A new mug mat (a set of two) I created to replace an earlier version. This version incorporates thermal insulation batting (Insul-Brite). The quilted mat was created weaving a jelly roll with a nautical theme. The idea is to update our current mats including thermal protection so we can use them for our hot cups of tea, plus match colours within our home interior however the colours didn’t work as well as I’d hoped. I’m pleased with the quality of my construction. (Practice makes perfect@ LOL) Maybe I’ll make them again some time down the track, meanwhile they will be very useful.

That fabric didn’t hang about in your stash, great work 
Good idea to add the insulation - no more coaster hunting whilst carrying a hot tea! How are you feeling about the colours now you’ve had a couple of weeks to get used to your new mats?

Hello @BlossomSandwich ! Interesting you should ask about the colours. The yellow binding kept jumping out at me, telling me to choose a better colour … and I did. Here’s a photo of my mug mat with the replacement binding. I’m delighted with my effort to unpick, and try again; I was rewarded. Thanks for asking the question. Here’s an image of the updated mat.
