Make an easy sew mug wrap that is a perfect gift for the coffee or cocoa lover.
Cut one of each of the following pieces
5″ x 11″ Front Fabric
5″ x 11″ Backing Fabric
5″ x 11″ Smooth Fusible Fleece
Iron Smooth interfacing onto the back side of your back fabric. Lay front and back fabric right sides together and pin.
To form the elastic loop fold elastic in half and slide the looped side between the two pieces of fabric. Center it along the short side. Pin elastic in place. Pin both layers of fabric together.
Sew around the two layers of fabric using 1/4″ seam allowance and leave a 2″ gap on one side of the fabric. This will allow you to turn the fabric right side out.
Turn right side out and iron flat. Pin closed and stitch around the mug wrap with an 1/8″ seam allowance.
To place button on mug wrap, fold the edge with the elastic 1/2″ over the non elastic edge. Using a pencil, mark the edge of the elastic. Sew the button onto the mark.
