This mummy pattern Sandy designed last year is perfect for last minute Halloween sewing. 
This is an easy pattern using neutral scraps from your scrap stash and adding the eyes makes this the cutest mummy on the planet! The photo below is a quick layout for Step 1 of the pattern. ![IMG_3227[1]](https://i0.wp.com/graybarndesigns.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/IMG_32271.jpg?resize=354%2C472&ssl=1)

Hello! It’s Cindy reporting in from Ohio.
Sandy asked me to share her Mummy Mug Rug Pattern with you because she is still playing catch up from her vacation with me in Ohio AND it’s back to school time…yikes!
Isn’t this the cutest pattern? It’s the third pattern in Sandy’s “Spooky Scary Mug Rug Series”. You can also find the patterns for two other Spooky Scary mug rugs by clicking on our “Free Patterns” tab. Scroll down and you will find the “Vlad Vampire” and “Frank N. Stein” patterns to keep your Mummy company.
My neighbors, a.k.a. the Teen Age Girls (or TAGs) as I affectionately call them, are begging for a new sewing project…this is it! It uses random scraps, and it’s fast, easy and fun! The TAGS will be learning two new quilting skills: zig zag stitching and attaching a binding…all in one sweet little project!

Even though it’s still summer, fall is getting closer! Let’s savor these warm August days while looking forward to a colorful fall!
It was a rainy weekend here in Ohio and I was recovering from a terrible cold. I was down but not out! I just sewed and sewed and sewed. Here are some of my masterpieces (if I do say so myself)!
I made this Sweet Heart Mug Rug for my friend who loves cats (you can download our free pattern by clicking on this link: Sweet Heart Mug Rug). Aren’t these cats the cutest? They are left over from some Cotton + Steel fabric scraps I had on hand.
Here’s another mug rug using pink, white and lime green scraps…I like this combo a lot.
Here’s a mug rug using a romantic black and white print. This black & white print used to be curtains; now up-cycled to another every day use!
After I got tired of making mug rugs, I moved on to quilt my husband’s birthday gift. Quilting this pillow took a long time BUT I am happy with the results.
Norma wanted to get in on the action so of course I took her picture….maybe instead of the fox guarding the hen house, the dog is guarding the fox house?
I am obsessed with making mini quilted Valentines this year. The pattern for my mini Valentines is actually my free mug rug pattern. You can click on this link to download the pattern: Sweet Heart Mug Rug
I searched through my scraps for interesting color combinations that are “just perfect” for family and friends. Here’s my stack of Valentines so far; I’ve popped some of them in the mail already.
I had some left over fabric from the Strawberry Fields Revisited fabric collection by Fig Tree & Co. These colors match the decor in my youngest sister’s house.
Since Sandy likes “Frenchy” (is that a word?) things, she is the lucky recipient of this one. Work with me on this…I am hopeful it looks like the writing came from Paris!
My older sister lives in Florida and I couldn’t resist making a flamingo Valentine. It is definitely one of a kind!
Special note: with the above three Valentines, I deviated from the pattern and combined the inner and outer borders of Step 11 and Step 12. Each border piece around the heart is 1.75 inches wide.
The Valentine below goes to my pre-teen neighbor (and dog sitter). She picked out the blue fabric on a recent shopping trip and I know she will be very happy to see it in her Valentine!
This is my favorite because it reminds me of an English garden. I mailed it off to my dear friend (DF). DF, I hope you like it!
Chela from Chela’s Colchas y Mas blog post made a super cute Valentine using my pattern. She used shades of lavender with a pretty floral.
You still have time to make a few Valentines! Don’t be afraid to get started!
