I've been slowly plugging away at the mug rugs I want to send out but am stacking them up to mail a bunch together... but yesterday I ran into a friend who wanted to bring me mooncakes she had baked for the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday (shame on me, my mooncakes were store-bought this year

), so last night I decided to make her a Mid-Autumn mug rug to say thank you for the mooncakes. I put myself in overdrive, cut and pieced the block last night, FMQ'd it this morning, and by noon, the binding was on, just in time to exchange mooncakes for mug rug! She liked it because it tells the story of this particular holiday, "The Rabbit in the Moon." Frankly, didn't think I could make a mug rug that quickly, but when on a mission, I guess you do what you have to do!

Friends, I have not forgotten the mug rug I promised either. Like I have said many times. Life just gets in the way sometimes. For the last 3 weeks I have been watching sick grandkids. Some virus causing headaches and a high fever. Mom and Dad both work, so that just leaves me to watch them. I have been sneaking a few minutes sewing whenever I can. I also have a quilt on the longarm that needs to be done by next Wednesday. Anyway, just wanted to let you know I haven't forgotten. Love to all.

Ditto. Except for the sick grandkids... and the longarm deadline. But, I'm back in town and will be back in the saddle this weekend!

Our local post office is small and they don't care one way or the other. Some of you ladies across the pond received your mug rug from me faster than the ones here in the states. :shock:

Geneva--I have not forgotten you--I just haven't been in my studio for over a week. I will let you know when yours is winging it's way to you.
Patti Kaplan--would you like to exchange muggies?

No worries Ritzy... I know your mug rug will be worth waiting for!!

Take it easy on yourself.

PosyP OFFLINE Posts: 4106 Thank you received: 361	Came across reference to a quilting ufo group over at myquiltplace.com http://myquiltplace.com/group/ufos..... 'Sometimes the UFO group gets distracted. Among the nearly 350 “pages” of group conversation, you’ll see tips on gardening, canning, allergies, dogs, recipes, and those most-loved WIPS, their husbands, children, and grandchildren.' There you go, then. perfectly normal behaviour
