TUTORIAL: RJR Fabrics ‘In The Kitchen’ FPP Coffee Cups Wallhanging

Hello and Happy Friday!!

(Yay!!)

In today’s post I’m combining both part one and part two in my most recent project uploaded onto my YouTube channel featuring the new RJR Fabrics collection, ‘In the Kitchen’ by Patrick Lose. And that of course is my Foundation Paper Pieced (FPP) Coffee Cups Wallhanging!

So I thought, instead of doing two separate posts, why not join them together in a lovely huge blog post for you to come back to and have all of the info you need in one neat little package!

So let’s get into the nitty-gritty stuff and start making!

First of all you’ll need the pattern to make those cute-as-a-button coffee mugs! And here it is!

—>> FPPCoffeeCupsPattern <<—

Download it and print it off as many times as you wish! (Although for this project you’ll only need three copies!)

Next is the video tutorial where I show you how to piece them together… You’ll find that right under this video, there’s a full list of all of the fabrics you’ll need, how much to cut for each section (all of the guess work has been taken care of!) as well as a few of the tools and notions I use when I’m FPP.

MEASUREMENTS & CUTTING INFO:
Cut these amounts for each section in the template. (These amounts are to make one Coffee Cup block.)

TEMPLATE A –
A1: x1 4.5″x5″ rectangle
A2 & A3: x2 1.5″x1.5″ squares

  6. My favorite thing to make in the kitchen is pumpkin pie. It reminds me of many things: giving thanks, being with my family, learning to make pumpkin pie from my mom, and the many memories made during the holidays. (And how much I absolutely love pumpkin pie.) 🙂 I just adore your FPP Wall hanging! It is now on my to-do list because I have a dear friend who would love one. 🙂

It brings joy to my heart to look at those colorful jars sparkling in the summer sun and knowing that in the deep of winter we will have a yummy taste of summer. Can’t wait to make your wall hanging. I’ve been wanting to do something with coffee cups for the kitchen and this is perfect!

  11. Thank you for the very well done videos for making this coffee cup wall hanging. I can see a lot of coordinating pieces that would be fun to make as well. In the kitchen, (once I have my coffee, of course) I like making different things for breakfast. Lately, crepes and ebelskivers (danish filled pancakes) are interesting me. But, I like cooking or making a variety of other things as well. Thanks, again!

  13. I love this and I love the material. I am going to make it and a few mug rugs and pot holder/hot pads. What I like making most (besides coffee) in the kitchen my own garden fresh marinara sauce. I grow all the vegetables (summer squash, bell peppers, tomatoes, shallots etc) and then freeze part of it so I can have it in the winter. I also over grow my zucchinis a and cut them open long ways, scoop out the seeds and then add the marinara sauce (mixed with either meat or shrimp) and bake them in the oven but before pulling out, I sprinkle some fresh Romano cheese on top and let it melt. I have a lot of fun recipes to go with my marinara sauce and I love making it. Even people who done like meatless sauce love my recipe. Well, they say they do, they could just be being nice ha ha ha, but they do come back for seconds!

  15. I Love this so much. Thank you for sharing this with us. I love making church windows with my grandbabies. The bad part is they eat all of my small Colored marshmallows . So I always have to get extra bags . My motherinlaw gave me the recipe when I married her son 22 years ago. It goes way back in her family.

  16. I’m not much in the kitchen, but I love to bake cookies at Christmas. I make them and take them around to everyone in our small town who contribute to making life lovelier. I especially try to remember those who help out when times are hard–the folks at the vet who gave me a hug when we got heartbreaking news, the men at the power company who climbed our power pole in the icy darkness to put the line up and bring the lights back on.

  21. Oh my, I like making lots of things in the kitchen. I guess because I like to eat delicious food! Cookies are a favorite, but I try not to make them too often since I’m trying to eat healthier. And bread, but also not too often. I love trying new recipes. Another thing I like to make is potholders, which I don’t MAKE in the kitchen, but I USE in the kitchen. I also give lots of them away to family and friends because I think everybody needs them. Love your project and these fun fabrics!

    1. What I like to make most in the kitchen is a new Russian tea recipe that I found on Bree Hester’s blog. It is much better and healthier than the old recipe I used about 30 yrs. ago. I have very few friends who drink coffee, but I have several who love this tea, so the cups pattern will be fun for all.

    This turned out so cute!! those fabrics are just so beautiful – I would love to make a double oven mitt. My favorite thing to make in the kitchen is cookies. My husband loves the traditional Toll House chocolate chip cookies but he doesn’t like the chips, so I exclude those and add extra walnuts – they’re yummy!
