Thank you so much, Jane!!

:lol: :lol: :lol: Yes indeed-y do !! Way too much fun !! I'm so happy that you like your muggies !
...Or are too kind to say otherwise :roll: :roll: ... This time around, I gained a lot ! I cut into
my hand dyed stash ....I used up an Ugly Exchange leftover that I couldn't throw away because it
already had fusible on it !! It's amazing how far those pieces went !! You all are getting something
to remind you of Idaho.. :roll: Oh, I know it's cheesy ! :lol: :lol: I persisted when Big Bernie had
thread tantrums ! And then there's that little ric-rac...My Mom musta had miles of it !! Bless her !
And thanks for the comments on the card ! I can't draw a lick ! This is a print from flower-pounding
pieces done years ago. Can't enjoy them unless you make a print as they fade out in the light ! :evil:
Jane...I know it'll make it !! Rest will get thru customs and be there soon I hope !!

More gorgeous 'carpets'!! :)

I must admit that I ignore sizes for these pieces and just make what I fancy and what feels right..... Call me a 'rebel'. :)

And then there is this problem that the little '%&%&%$^&%$' develop a life of their own during construction and refuse to stay small and dainty. Ah well, maybe I should rename mine 'dinner plate rugs'! :)

In case anyone is wondering that makes 159 mug rugs received and recorded for us to see! WooHoo! Does anyone besides me think that this is more fun than we should be having.

Rosemary--your mug rug will not call itself done. You will have to wait a while longer(how is that for a tease?).
Well I am still on a two mug rug high, but I think it's a blast!

Ok, I was so excited to get Marilyn's mug rug and to let her know it was here that I stopped opening mail. Alert! Never stop opening your mail! Look what was also there from Jane. A beautiful Bird of Paradise with fantastic colors, shading, and teeny tiny hexies! I am absolutely giddy. I love Tuesdays, I love Tuesdays, I love Tuesdays! Thanks so much, Jane! It is terrific!

Add me to the list of lucky Marilyn mug rug recipients! I got mine today, too.

The mug rug is very happy and summery and just gorgeous! The quilting is wonderful and the tiny rick-rack makes the pillowcase finish look like a binding. I looked at it a long time before I realized there wasn't a binding! The colors are beautiful and the perfect quilting continues the flowers into the background. Wonderful!

And on the back, a little taste of the winter that is on it's way:

I love everything about it! Thank you so much, Marilyn!!
