Those are cute Linda! Yep, we do need all the colors-just more than others! ;)

Those are both so cute Elisabrat! Super curvy stresses me out when I'm sewing.

I made my first FMQ attempt last night. I was going to just jump in with both feet and do it on this playmat I'm doing. Epic fail doesn't begin to describe it. I ripped it out and am putting a 6-1/2" wide diamond pattern on it instead that I can use a "normal" stitch for on my machine. My machine was pulling the top thread down to the bottom side and leaving big loops of it everywhere, then it hiccuped and I just got mad and tore it all out. I tried tension adjustments on my test piece, and never could get it where I was happy with it. I have a Kenmore 385 sewing machine that my mother bought me as a wedding gift in December 1991, and it was not made with FMQ in mind. At 21 years old, I hate to put a lot into buying new feet if I'm going to end up upgrading before long anyway, which I may do in the spring with my tax refund.

I didn't realize we should be giving clues.
Well here's a section of the rug mug for my partner.
I hope it fits the bill (request for young boy)

Is anyone else planning on sending more than one?

I'm sending one, but some fat quarters and candy too. My partner JUST JOINED prior to joining the swap, so I have no bio, no posts, nothing to go on. I hope she likes what I send!
