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?

I had just heard on the forum that a lot of the small post offices didn't know about customs forms so I was using the bigger post office that does this a lot. Otherwise, I've always used my local post office for everything because I like them a lot and I want to keep them in business. But since I know about customs forms now, that may not be a big deal. So I'll try to get things out soon. We have a break on Wed afternoon, so maybe I'll see if I can find the Breckenridge post office.

Our small town PO is the greatest!

Oh Nancy it sounds terrible the way the roads have been wrecked. I find our local post office which is in a tiny village works even more efficiently than the bigger town. And the same goes for Dingle post office. It seems to get there faster from Dingle than from Dublin. Please stay safe. Hugs, Rita.

That's right, give your local post offices something different (and scary!) to think about international mail :shock:

Yes, stay safe!!

Stay safe !

Lovely Australian mug rugs! I have a couple of mug rugs all packaged up, but not sure when I will be able to make it to a post office. I had been going to the Boulder post office to post things internationally, but I guess I'm going to have to trust the smaller mountain post offices for now since it's quite a long drive to Boulder with all of the mountain roads out! With the current roads, it would take me probably 2.5-3 hours to get to Boulder when it usually takes about 30 minutes. Don't think I'll be going there any time soon!

We are quickly hitting the 200 Mug Rug mark(those who have posted their pictures here)!

I think this exchange is awesome also. Rosemary--love your sampler piece.

I had a lovely package all the way from South Australia this morning! Two beautiful mug rugs, one from Toni (Tannes) and the other from Robyn (Benno). They are both so lovely. First there is Robyn's one. A disappearing 9-patch done with those lovely cute fabrics from a mini charm pack. And perfect quilting. This was accompanied by some Australian afternoon tea. I will be trying that tomorrow afternoon. Hmmm, maybe I will make a tea brack to go with it.


Next is Toni's mug rug. A very pretty fabric in the hexagon and lovely quilting with a variegated thread. This mug rug was accompanied by a lovely piece of fabric with Koala's on it. So pretty.

Thank you both so much. I am so happy to have mug rugs from so far away. This exchange is awsome.

Wow have I gotten behind on this forum. What wonderful mug rugs. And Rosemary, your stitch sampler is awesome. I owe a couple of mug rugs to folks. Maybe I can get those done in the next few weeks.

Hi ladies Robyn has passed the messages on and when things get slow at the end of the week I will take photoessays of my current mug rugs . Rita you are very welcome. I am glad you like the mr yours Toni in rainy south australia
