Engage!
1
Gather your supplies.
You'll need two pieces of fabric for your rug that are approx. the same size. A piece for your pocket and some fusable interfacing.
2
Start by pressing your fabric and pressing down all your sides to your pocket.
3
Also press your fusable interfacing onto one of your pieces for your rug.
4
Top stitch the top of your pocket.
- Do yourself a favor and make sure your pocket is big enough to fit a package of Earl Grey first. I ended up re-making my pocket because I didn't the first time.
5
Once your pocket is the right size, pin and sew it down to one side of your rug.
6
Ta-Da!
7
Next pull out your embroidery floss and use the back stitch and the satin stitch to embroider your emblem on to the opposite side of your rug.
8
Next place the two sides of your rug right sides together and sew around leaving a 3 inch opening to turn right-side out later.
9
Trim your corners and turn right side out. Press flat and top stitch all the way around.

And you're done!
