The August Guild meeting is the 21st but there’s plenty of time to whip up a pincushion for our next swap!

No color restrictions or rules we only ask that you make a pincushion that you would LOVE to receive.

We’ve put together an inspiration board on Pinterest to get your creative juices flowing.

Can’t wait to see what you bring to the swap table later this month!

June Mug Rug Swap

Mug Rug Pinterest

It was announced during the May meeting that we’ll be hosting a Mug Rug swap at the June meeting.

What’s a mug rug you ask? It’s a mini quilt that’s typically used as a coaster.

For our swap, we’ll be making mug rugs approximately 5″ x 5″ and in shades of the Pantone Color of the Year: Radiant Orchid.

If you’d like to participate, create one mug rug approx.  5″ x 5″ made with a top, batting, backing, and binding. We have created a Mug Rug Inspiration board on the NJMQG Pinterest page to help you get the creativity flowing…go check it out!

Bring your Mug Rug to the June meeting – anyone who makes a Mug Rug will receive one.

Any questions? Leave a comment and we’ll respond!
