Brenda - so sorry to hear about all your losses, what a difficult time for you to go through. Big hugs for you.

Nancy, what beautiful feathers in your quilting

Beautiful mug rugs. Jane, you must tell us which thread you used. I think we are more or less becoming thread junkies, so we need our fix :lol:

Beautiful mug rugs, Jane!

Andree, I'm not sure what brand Jane used but a lot of the thread manufacturers have variegated metallic thread. Superior and FilTec are two examples that I have at home.

Look at the beautiful MugRugs I received from Jane yesterday:

The background on the bigger one is a variegated metallic thread? What kind is it? I've never seen that before...
And the pinwheel (no that's not it... hourglass?) construction on the smaller one is very interesting... :?:

Thank you so much Jane!

I will post the picture in Show&tell as well.

Sorry for your loss Brenda. 36 is far too young to die and so quickly too, very cruel. Then your neighbour and I am sorry about your labs as well. That's a lot of loss in a very short space of time. Give it time, the pain will pass.

Nancy, what a gorgeous mug rug for Charae. So beautifully done, honestly, it looks perfect. Charae I know you will enjoy it. :D
