Sending postive thoughts to both Sue & Emma at this time.

Wendy - do you mean that you have finally found your printer! I don't remember that announcement at all, I thought it was still missing...

I have a small pile of mug rugs that need labeling and then getting down to the post office. I hope to try and achieve that this week along with everything else I would like to achieve ( new skirt that fits me, sandwich up caught red handed, dunging out the sewing room - again - finish the ironing, start on a trouser pattern for Izzy, finish up some more thimbles, and...and... and...)

Sending Emma lots of positive thoughts Lorchen, what a horrid feeling at what should be a special time. I do hope all goes well

Thanks everyone for your nice comments on Tricky Rims mug rug. It was so fun to make.

Susan, I hope you are surrounded by family and friends who make this difficult time a little easier for you.

Fellow Lizards: I managed to get to the local post office and a stack of carpets are all flying now. They are all different. I hope I made the right choices. I noticed that they are off flying North, East, South, and West from here.

The only ones that are still in the planning stage are the ones for Lois and Cathy. And now I better get on the road to spend some time with my Goddaughter whose baby is due soon. Please, everybody, send her positive vibes. Emma had a still-born baby girl last year. Nobody was able to work out why, so she is very scared and stressed this time.

I love Rita's 'Wee Irish Bloke'.

BJ is it under the bed with Wendy's printer? If you like I can post a photo as I took one before I sent it off?

What a great mug rug you received Rita. BJ is certainly very creative--the background fabric and stitching are wonderful.

Rita, I love your mug rug. Betty Jo, it is great. I hope Mr. Tims gets to see Mr. Rims.

Susan, so sorry to hear about your stepmother. The lose is so hard, even when we know they are no longer suffering and are in a better place. I will be praying for your and your family.

I had something else in mind, but when the Tricky Rims story came up, I had to make it. I still have to photograph Rita's lovely butterfly mug rug she sent me...just as soon as I can find it.

BJ, That mug rug is great fun! Lucky Rita!

Great BJ and like the background fabric

How funny, Rita.
This made me laugh. Well done, BJ

This mug rug from BJ arrived a while back but I got sidetracked and forgot to photograph and post it.Thanks BJ! So here it is

Mmmmh, chocolate martinis. I'm not normally into the sweet and mixed versions, when I was bar tending during college I decided that if its not good enough to ENJOY on its own, it's not good enough to drink... But the idea of a choccie martini is quite interesting...

Susan, thinking of you and sending hugs and strength to you and your family.

Lorchen, if that single malt rug is perfect for use with your favorite single malt glass, then it's already found its perfect home!

Just got home yesterday, and already off to a little exhibition at my favorite local quilt shop...
