Gorgeous mug rugs ladies. Most definitely the makers and the receivers got to be so proud.

Ritzy, I agree too, a series is in order.

Yep! Gets pretty hot here during the summer. 40° to 45°C but, there's the pool that we can enjoy in the morning and later in the afternoon when it gets shady, and the AC works really good inside the house. We can always move furniture out of the family room and do the glamping there. Also the Grand Canyon is just a couple of hours away from here so we can meet there too. Idaho and Montana sound great also, Susan.

Marilyn, over here! Me, me, me. I'd like to get on the list too, please.

I know nobody has got a mug rug from me, yet

but, you have my word, you'll get it eventually .

Last, but not least. Got this on the mail this week!!!

Thanks a lot Lotti!!! Hope you're enjoying your vacation.

And a little something to wash it down with. And I think seeing as it is Limbania's birthday I will bring along a bottle of Midleton (75 year old oak-aged whiskey.)

Smashing rugs Connie and Lois, you're doing us proud

Are we going glamping at Limbania's?

Ditto on the mug rugs. Ritzy, your multi-colored thread is way cool!

Rita, there should be beaucoup butterflies at Limbania's in mid-summer, hummingbirds, too. If we go glamping, we might want to go up way up in the mountains where it's cooler.

On the other hand, we could have the TQS jet take us up to northern Idaho where it's spectacular in the summer. Maybe we could talk MontanaGramma into inviting us to glamp at her house

I'm happy to say that I've got some mug rugs on the design wall. We lost power for no see-able reason today for 1 1/2 hours which killed sewing today. I have the binding, label and sleeve to go and I'm DONE the bird Quilt. It will be a relief to have it done.

OK mug ruggers! I have been working on this and can't decide if I should finish. I think I would have liked it a lot better if I had switched colors of thread for each section(though I don't know if I even have that many different colors of thread). I also was thinking of doing some couching on this but at this point, I am not sure anyone would even want it. So, can I have some feedback? And, if there is someone who likes it, I will finish it and send it to them.

Please ignore the lint and extra fibers on it.

Ritzy, when I saw your picture I immediately saw the lights of an psychedelic amusement park at night, you know the kind they have on the roller coasters...way cool! If you hadn't already sent mine I'd be claiming this one as my own!

I don't care one bit that you didn't change colors. Of course, I already have one from you and I wouldn't want to be greedy. But if no one else speaks up you know my address. Maybe you see a way you would have liked it better but that isn't in any of our heads. You just know more for next time. It's beautiful.
