It is going ok. I am liking having a 4 day week even though the days are longer than I have been used to. Work colleagues are fun and I can have a good 'banter' with themthis makes all the difference! The pace of work is slower than I am used to, so that is taking some getting used to though. Got my first paycheck on Friday for 2 weeks of turning up - :woohoo: :kiss: :woohoo: Some of which may or may not have been spent on fabric on a girls day out with some friends from EG and Izzy, when we went to Bombay Stores, Bradford, and then onto a couple of other fabric shops in Harrogate.



www.remnanthousefabric.co.uk/ reputably this shop although small has a good selection of quilting cottons on the first floor (upstairs) but I wasn't allowed up thereby Izzy- boo hiss! even after I had bought some fabric for her to a make a nightgown with.

Thanks, this is the one I made with my group. I kept it simple to try and get most done in an evening :)

:lol: :lol: that's right.

How frustrating Judith, mine started jamming and I found it was a tiny nick on one of my bobbins. Must have happened during one of my misadventures. I filed it down and no further problems, just a thought. But your problems probably fluff jamming it somewhere, I hope it's something simple. Anyway no rush it's nice to have something to look forward to. It'll go further than the neighbours to be shown off when it arrives. :cheer:
I'm pleased mine gave you a sunny moment. :)

None of my muggies have thermal batting in. (I think Wendy is just 'swanking' because she has got some! :P )

Guess what came in the mail today from the UK. ? :woohoo: A beautiful mug rug from Wendy! I was so excited! I showed my husband and my sons and my next door neighbor. She was excited too. (She has chickens too.)
Everyone wanted to hold it and look at it for awhile. Made them all smile!

I love the little leaves and the log cabin and the finish. I am a Kaffe fan too. Thank you for posting the directions on how to do the finish.

Wendy, The mugrug I am doing for you is not finished yet. My Bernina has been very bad lately. It greedily gobbles up thread in the bobbin case area and won't let it go. I had to take it back to the dealer. It stopped in the middle of a row of decorative quilting on your mugrug. (See below) So it will be a little longer. I am sorry about that.
