Da da da da da dadda da da da da daada dada... happy dance oh the happy dance.. yessirree I am doing the happy dance.

Nancia those are not mug rugs those are mug holders you cant fool me. a rug is something that lays flat on the ground never once had a seriously bumpy rug honest its true. those mug holders are a work of art. No wonder you participate in the art challenge each month here on the board.. you think like an artist more than a quilter I think. maybe both equally.. grand job young lady grand job. me more traditional here is the one I made tracibug as a side swap..my cartoon piggy...argh its not showing add ap ic l et me try that again.

those are just wonderful! son daniel was going to grow up to become a pig farmer. he charged 25 cents to enter his room and he was saving it to buy his farm. he started making up plays and puppet shows and inviting the neighborhood, and charging his quarter a head. now he's getting his masters in screen- and playwriting at the university of london. and he won't eat pork. lol may i ask where you found that flying pig fabric? the birdie reminds me of my friend emily. she loves all things from the emerald isle!!

Love the piggy, especially if it was red like a razorback.

(Sliding up next to sikesjj.....yep, it's early, but I gotta "stir the pot", lol)

WAR EAGLE!

(We now return you to your regularly scheduled quilting station)

The pigs are so cute! There are a few adorable pig fabrics out there. I think my favorite is the where where they're all squeezed together and you can barely see their bodies, but they're all making different faces. I forget where I saw that one. I wish I had some of it to share with you ladies now!

Talking my new addiction...

( other than Pinterest ) Selvage quilts. Can you imagine how long it would take to make one of these?

Wahoo I made it in I'm number 42. Really looking forward to this I think the size is really doable. Is there a theme or do we talk to partners about preferences? Lots of ideas running through my head after looking at the pictures of earlier swaps and posts.

ok a selvage quilt: um if you hit your fabric stash or mine you would find it wouldnt take long at all for say the swirl one or the library one.. I toss them right and left as I dont do tiny things my eyes would flop out on the table if I tried to work them that hard. if you have a stash in theory you could raid it however this is important if you later needed more of one of those fabrics and then had no idea who made it.. trouble. or you could write notes Moda Marble Crimson or such on each of them as you cut them off and pin it to your fabrics. Otherwise it will take you as long as it takes saving them based on how much you quilt. OR you can post can you send me your salvages? see people will do this for you a few here a few there add up. good luck. best you not me!
