You guys understand! Cuppy, please forgive the binding, it is my Achilles heel. [ATTACH=CONFIG]535821[/ATTACH]
I think it is lovely! It is easy to see that you really put your heart into it. Binding is my downfall as well.....we'll get there.....eventually! What a wonderful mug rug!

My husband always oooooooh's and awwwwwww's and then says, "and you are going to send this off to a perfect stranger?" To which I always reply, "they aren't stranger's to me.....they are my Quilting Board family". He just likes to tease me. He does understand.

Leesewzany, that's a great mug rug! Love all of your hand embroidery... and the gray background fabric. The quilting is perfect too. Cute as a button.

Your mug rug is on its way over the big pond to you. I had fun making it for you.

Leesewzany -- that's a beautiful mug rug you made. Love that penguin, & the fabric is wonderful! My husband loves to tease, too, but he knows I get such joy from sending out my work to my swap buddies. Your husband will figure that out, too!

Has anyone heard from Dotcomdtcm-Dotty? She's my swap buddy. Sent her package out last week, was supposed to get there last Fri. She hasn't answered a PM and the post office says the tracking # isn't available.

Oh Reggie! That is so frustrating when the tracking number isn't available or showing if it is delivered! Hopefully, Dotty is just fine and will check in soon! I know Nov. and Dec. are hectic months for me, maybe she is super busy!

Becky your mug rug will be in the mail tomorrow, it has been finished but life just went into super busy mode for me. It was a fun filled two weeks but extremely tiring, glad to have my routine back.

Ladies, I need to make a quick explanation of what's going on here so you will understand my absence of the board for awhile. I came home as soon as I could get here as my Father was admitted to the hospital very ill. He passed away yesterday so right now my life is making arrangements and finalizing details. I hope you all understand.
I did mail my mug rugs to RobinLee yesterday and received this beautiful work of art from her today. Thank you again Robin for making me smile today.[ATTACH=CONFIG]535935[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]535936[/ATTACH]Truly a beauty and thank you for the extra's too.
