Experimenting with fabric

 I already showed you the hexagon mat that I made. I did another one though using Christmas fabrics and made it bigger.

Excuse the bad picture. It was later in the evening and bad light in the cave. Any way, I liked this except not crazy about how the outer rings fabric looks. The pattern of the fabric not matching on the strips kind of annoys my OCD. I like the fabric itself with the other two it's just that one little thing that gets me.

I also played around and made a mug rug beause I wanted to experiment with binding. I used all scrap fabric to make this.

After making the front you take a piece of fabric that is a half inch larger all the way around. You fold in the corners and then the sides to create the binding on the front. I obviously need a lot of practice on that. My seams are all crooked and the corners don't match up. My biggest problem is always accuracy in cutting. This was just for me so it's no big deal I'll keep trying and see if I can get it better.
