    jaba -- Mama Bear & her 3 cubs are adorable! I think those are the same ones I saw crossing the road on my way to work one day! Mama & her 3 cubs -- nope, the cubs I saw were a bit bigger! I love the fabric on the back of that mug rug, too. Is that a crocheted dishcloth I see? Very nice!
    crotheted pot holder or trivet, yes, I like them also.... we do have bear occasionally in our area, and have a pic. of one on the neighbors driveway ... this has been a fine swap, thank you for your work...jacie

    I found this months theme THE ZOO to be a bit of a challenge... have FINALLY come up with an mug rug that I am working on that is ZOO themed. Usually I don't have to much trouble thinking of what I want to create.. this month was just the opposite!!! Everyone's mr are cute!!!!

    That was the idea -- to toss out a challenge once in a while! It's okay that you're still working on it , Jan -- we can't wait to see it! But not every month will be a real challenge (IMHO). Next month ... well, it could be a challenge ... depends on how much one wants to challenge oneself! Two more days for sign-ups! (gulp!)
