Rosemary, would she come 'en natural' or somehow covered??

Are you at home tomorrow?? Even though I'm a member of the union, I cannot support the teachers tomorrow because my contract states I'm 'Support', so my employer could take disciplinary action if I don't turn up for work in the morning, even though the school is closed to students. Rolling eyes..... A whole day of boring admin. stuff.

I could make her some boxer shorts if you like

I'm not in the union, and will be in work, I haven't heard that my school is closing for today, but I do have Izzy home for company. CBBes is even worse now she has supposedly grown out of it

I had better start cracking the whip and getting her to do all outstanding homework....

And Nancy too. Hexies are such wonderful little blocks and offer a great variety of movement. Guess I need to give the pieced/split ones a try one of these days. I, too, would love to know how you finished the back like that.

Nancy I can't figure out how you did the back of that hexie. I like it! I would like to know how. I love to give away those hexie blocks. Great way to play with the stash!

Do you like the beautiful writing on the label?? With my nose to it while writing I was feeling really proud because it felt so straight! Then I stepped back....

Guess I need to draw guide lines, but I'm so excited when I get to that point that I always make the mistake of thinking I can wing it! At least it's just the back!

Nancy, too hard on yourself, the writing is charming and I did not even notice the lines drifting because the whole package was so delightful!!!

Renata OFFLINE Posts: 2673 Thank you received: 260	Oh, Nancy, I love what you did with the colors and fabrics of Rita's mug rug--such a beautiful flower with movement given by the hexie design as well as the varying types of prints of the fabrics. What a great lesson!

I too have a mug rug to share today. I received this beauty in the post a few days ago from Nancy. It is so lovely. Look at that musical fabric! I love the movement in it - it must be doing a Kerry Polka.

It is beautifully and perfectly executed Nancy thank you so much. I also received some goodies. This was an very unexpected parcel so I am doubly delighted.

Don't worry, I will find good homes for all those wonderful goodies Nancy.

Happy dancing.
