Let’s Sew a Mug Tote

A Mug Tote! 

What a great idea!  How great is this idea?

• I love to sew
• It’s fun and easy to sew
• It uses scraps
• It makes a great gift
• It protects my mug when I take it somewhere
• It makes a great blog post

Many thanks to my friend Joyce; she brought one to Sewing Social in Trenton last week and a lot of us got excited to sew one.  I offered to write a pattern, and here’s the result.
