Cute mug rug Terry. Thanks for sharing.
This is my last finish for 2014 and the last one I will share here.
It is a very quick and "rough" quilt (or is it? maybe it is a blanket). It consists of a flannel sheet, a layer cake, a charm pack and it should have been a mini charm pack but LQS didn't have any suitable colours so went with a charm pack and cut the charms into quarters. Turned out to be a good idea because the charm pack I already had contained a lot of plain squares and was not what I wanted. I don't usually buy pre-cuts; I don't like them but had to get the layer cake and charm pack for a class; ended up not liking the test block we did so never did anything with either pre-cut pack until now. The squares are sewn to the sheet using the tripple zig-zag stitch on the machine.
Here are photos of before and after washing:
All the very best for 2015 to everybody. Hope to see you all around cyberspace somewhere, sometime. Take care

Terry, you are absolutely right on giving credit where credit is due! I was WRonG to have suggested otherwise!!!
I just noticed your T-shirt in your avatar. Have you seen the Farmer's Wife quilt book? I love reading the great testimonies by women of the farming world and have those blocks on my bucket list.

Marianne, love that 'quilt blanket'. I make "Community Quilts" (for charity) for my guild and this would be a fun project. I imagine it would be easy to add a layer of batting on top of the flannel and then quilt down the squares on top. I wouldn't need the precuts, could just cut up yardage I have in those dimensions. I like that it is a quilt-as-you-go pattern, too. Thanks for sharing!
