I've got more picts o' the last hotpad.
I wonder why they are in this box & I can't lable 'em?
The third one & forth one were before I washed it, & the last 2 were after I washed it. The old washrags, that I used for battin', still shrunk a li'le bit. It happens everytime, & makes it have that crinkled look.

Great FMQ, DublB ... did you do totally FM? or via your plastic wrap method? or draw it on the fabric?
Mug Rugs could work too, Ladies for the mass produced Christmas gifts ... recipients could choose whether they use it as a pot holder or a Mug Rug.
However, I somewhat suspect OKSGlad's would never be mass produced, but with inclusions that would be unique to the recipient!

QuiltE...I didn't have a M&M show and tell yesterday but I did show off pictures of my PC quilt. This month we will be making something with flying geese. Then I did stay for my BOM club and put together a block. Next month will be the last class. This is the first time I've ever used the suggested fabric so it's a little out of my usual color choices but it's going to be very nice. Then my LQS has a project supporting cancer research this month. I didn't sew a wall hanging for it but they also have a challenge of donating $1 for every yard of fabric they sell. I got the yardages etc. for the next M&M BOM and spent an hour or so selecting fabric for it. I went to the new KT line which is also not necessarily my first color choices but wanted to see how I might like a quilt with darker colors. I only had to add a couple of light fabrics so there would be good contrasts. I'll post a picture tomorrow. BTW...this BOM is also called Jamestown. Quite different than yours, Mirabelle. I also did a test drive on the Janome 7700. My instructor is selling hers and is getting the new 8900 that just came out. I like the accufeed system and it's a very good price for a machine that I know is well taken care of but cooler minds are thinking this morning and I know it's not for me at this time.
