She contributed to my growing sewing room aviary with a beautiful mountain bluebird. The back has gorgeous Idaho birds as well! Just beautiful, a wonderful reminder of a trip years ago to northern Idaho. Don't tell anybody...but there's lots of open land up there and awesome birds.

Heck Marilyn don't you sleep :shock: well done they are all fun

Marilyn must have not slept because I received mine too!

Don't know whether it was sitting in my mailbox since Friday? because that is the last time I went there

but it's in my hands now, complete with potato chips on the back! You can see that Marilyn is drawn to miniatures--don't know how you did it with so much precision and beauty--the White Pine, state tree of Idaho. So lovely Marilyn and it goes so well with my Okinawan pottery--there has to be fishing in Idaho, right? Thank you so much, I am going to totally enjoy this!

The scene looks alot like an area 15 miles or so from me...especially now, when it is beautifully green !! And we do have antelope tho' not many know it !

idaho OFFLINE Posts: 2531 Thank you received: 183	Jane...thought I sent you a reply....musta hit the wrong button and lost it ! Yes, that wool quilt is awesome. I think I see some Sue Spargo there ! Her designs and style are popular in the Boise area right now, too. Hummmm? Is there a part of Idaho that isn't beautiful ?

And the fifth was in my mailbox when I got in...

My stomach's been doing backflips all day so I decided to come home early...
Got the mail on my way up, two speeding tickets! Actually it's good news, once they took the 6km/h off for speedometer error - I was only over by two km/hr on each (they were 128 instead of 120 and 108 instead of 100), and each of them cost me only 20 Swiss franks, I had been expecting minimum a 1 in front of those figures - the sad thing is that I got them within 15 minutes of each other when I went sightseeing with my colleague from India - for the rest of the day he kept telling me what the speed limit was whenever it changed

And the 'really good' envelope in my mailbox held...

Potatoes, a bluebird and other critters from Idaho!

Here the bluebird, critters and a fabulous mug of coffee:

And here the spuds:

Soooo happy!
THANK YOU Marilyn. It's a fabulous little MugRug. And it's coming to the office with me first thing tomorrow morning, going on my MugRug wall!

I received this beautiful mug rug in the post today from Marilyn. I really love it Marilyn, thank you so much.

The cookies look so real - unfortunately they are the only kind of cookies I can eat at the moment.

I brought the post in just as DH and I were about to sit down for a cup of coffee. My mug seemed to go particularly well with your one Marilyn.

Another great mug rug for my collection.

(P. S. - That ric-rac is so tiny I don't know how you managed to sew it on so well with a zig-zag stitch. And I really love the mountain blue bird.
