I’m so excited to share my bath mat project with you! For my bath mat, I choose [Splash! Cuddle® Belize](https://www.shannonfabrics.com/cuddle/prints/splash-cuddle-belize), [Starbright Cuddle® in Hot Pink/Iris](https://www.shannonfabrics.com/cuddle/prints/staright-cuddle-hot-pink-iris) and [Luxe Cuddle® Marble in Belize](https://www.shannonfabrics.com/luxe-cuddle/embossed/luxe-cuddle-marble-belize).  The mermaids are just perfect for a fun bathroom accessory!  - Splash! Cuddle® Belize - Starbright Cuddle® in Hot Pink/Iris - Luxe Cuddle® Marble in Belize When it came time to pick a layout for my mat I decided to use the [Fabulous 5](https://www.shannonfabrics.com/download_patterns/Fabulous5Pattern.pdf) Cuddle® quilt kit cutting instructions (variation #2). After all, the bath mat is similar to a quilt, but it's laid out on the floor. The Fabulous 5 pattern is available as a free download on the [Shannon website](https://www.shannonfabrics.com/download_patterns/Fabulous5Pattern.pdf) and it's perfect for showing off the cute prints with varied strip sizes. There are also nine different Fabulous 5 Cuddle® kits available! The kits would be perfect for the bath mat, and they are all written to be quilt-as-you-go Sew and Flip projects! Thank you so much for joining me today — I hope you’re inspired to sew along! Please post your creations on social media with the hashtag #sewcuddlysewalong and tag Shannon Fabrics.
