COFFEE RUG N COFFEE COASTERS

Again I cud grab a set of coffee theme printed dish towels made of very good cotton material at a sale.. The set had three pieces in it, one printed and the other two in matching plain colours..This time I thought of giving them a make over by going for a square shape for the quilted rug.The plain blocks were looking little too blank..So I thought of adding some applique to it..The coffee pot n the cup n saucer were made from the bits n pieces left from the towels..The rising steam are done in running stitches...Well ,am not an expert in applique..Hence the design may not be that perfect..The material was sufficient enough to stitch two simple quilted matching coasters as well.For the piping around the rug I used pieces from both plain n printed materials..The wooden button in the center had only one hole.. Honestly I did not have the patience to drill another one . Hence the easiest option was to position it in the center using a dab of fabric glue.
