Owl Mug Rug

I made a pretty darn cute mug rug today.  I used an own print fabric - fat quarter from Joann's, and bits of green polkadot left over from another project.  I fussy cut then appliqued the large owl.  I used a technique I saw on Fons and Porter. I placed a piece of tear away stabilizer under the project which allowed the project move more freely as I sewed. I still need to work on my binding skills - but 3 out of 4 corners is not too bad.
