Nancy--what thread did you use with the silk? It is wonderful! I want to grow up to quilt like that.

Marilyn--that DOES look like orange sherbet! Glad another picture was taken.
And Geneva--another pretty muggie from you.
All week I have been in a class of moderately handicapped students. Very long and sometimes stressful week. Anyway, today during art class we learned about "pop art". After seeing the art--I have to say that what we are doing here is definitely art--hold your heads high ladies! So, I left work today--glad to be done for the week; picked up my paycheck and found out I received a raise--woohoo! Now I make a little more than minimum wage. And, came home to find a mug rug--I am a happy girl.
This beauty came from Nancy. The fabric looks like it might be a satin of some kind(Nancy, could you tell us what you used?). It has columbines and glitz and you would not believe the quilting. You folks who get mine don't get the spectacular quilting that others do--sorry. The distance between the lines of stitching are 1/8" or less.

Marilyn,
What I did was take it at night with only one light shining down onto the mug rug laying flat. Last time it was during the day with light from the windows and over the block so I think the color got washed out. But am very happy with this one for sure; the fabric is so pretty I wanted everyone to see what a wonderful dying job you did.
