Pets on Quilts Post 2 - Charly and Wilbur Mug Rug

Last year Ruth (Charly & Ben's Crafty Corner) and I did a little mug rug swap together.  She made me two beautiful mug rugs which were too pretty to use, so I hung them on the wall and admire them every day.  (Thanks again Ruth!)

The mug rug I made for Ruth featured her dogs Charly & Wilbur, riding in a wagon.  They have a third pup now, a Basset puppy named Maggie, and you can read all about their fun photo shoot by clicking on the link in the first paragraph. 

My regular readers already saw Ruth's surprise, but I thought it would be fun to enter the Charly & Wilbur mug rug in the Pets on Quilts Show, in the Pet Themed Quilt Category.  Today is the last day and tomorrow the voting begins, so make sure you go see all the great entries at Lily Pad Quilting!  Jacque hosts this show every summer and it's one of those great blogland events where you can meet a lot of friends, both new and old.

Charly & Wilbur Mug Rug, made with Crafted Applique

I made Ruth's mug rug using the Crafted Appliqué method for fray-free raw edge, machine stitched appliques.  The method is taught in my book Crafted Appliqué: New Possibilities.  This year the book is one of the many fun prizes you can win by participating in the Pets on Quilts Show!  

Well, it's time for me to get busy blog hopping.  There are almost 50 terrific looking posts to see in the Pets on Quilts Show!

Thanks for visiting, because...

If you are a blogger too, she'll most likely follow you home.
