So every wednesday starting may 29th until our mail date of July 10th I will post a series of questions and the first thru third ( I will draw from) to answer correctly will get a prize!:thumbup:

Sounds like fun. I will just be observing. Lots of projects to get caught up on.:)

Question on Mug Rug Swap
 

Sorry if this is a stupid question but, will we make mug rugs according to someone else's color or theme requests or do we create our own design for this swap? Is this a one time swap or will we be swapping over a period of time? If so, how long is the swap and how many mug rugs does it entail?

Sorry if there was a previous post that I missed.

Your choice of colors, and block design. Just one block mug rug this swap, after this swap we may have another one which you can sign up for at that time.

I am in, too. Sending you a pm now. I love mug rugs!

Been busy, so many possibilities so little time! Working on mug rugs for fall right now.

I can't believe only one person has submitted their answers to my quiz...........................wake up everybody!!!

Okay, just sent mine. Was going to start the mug rug yesterday and got waylaid cleaning out and rearranging the room I use to keep all the rolls of batting in and finished quilts. Worth it, have more room now. Still need to vacuum is all. Now I need to see about selling my extra quilting table, it's a Little Gracie, and sure wish someone could use it.

Sent entry for contest...Way too early for all that thinking!! Tons of family beginning to come in later today for the graduation of my 2 youngest kids! Awards tonight, graduation Friday and Party Sunday!! It's a great occasion, but I will be glad when it is all over! Can't wait for uninterrupted sewing!!

That's what I was thinking too Pat, too early, but need to keep our "leader" happy:thumbup: Remember those graduation weekends a long time ago. Just go with the flow, you're going to have a long weekend for sure. Congrats to your kids though, bet they're glad!!

Just sent you a PM to join in the swap. Afraid I'm not much good on the quilt quiz but would love to see the answers

How much is it and how much would it cost to ship that bad boy?
