Moroccan Mug Rug
The inspiration for the design of
this little project was a window
grate in a photo of an old door in
Morocco.
When I saw the photo so many
ideas for ways to create with the
design began popping into my
head. Now, the window grate
was distorted by the angle of the
picture, so the first job was to
try to align it. Then I re-created
one quarter of the design, this
too could be broken down into
quarters. These quarters, like the
original, could be mirror imaged
vertically and horizontally or run
in a column to create a multitude
of new designs. The possibilities
seem nearly endless!
Work a block or ¼ block or ¼ of a
quarter with mirrors to design a
block of your own. Turn the inside
to become the outside or flip flop
vertically or horizontally. You may
be surprised at what you create.
Make it your own!!
