Cuppy received her package from me and asked that I post a picture here. Every time I try to be more traditional, someone says, "it's so modern!" I guess I just can't escape it. I hand embroidered the center penguin panel from Blend fabrics. I forget the name of the line, but it was so adorable. My husband couldn't believe I spent all that time on a gift for a stranger. Ha! You guys understand! Cuppy, please forgive the binding, it is my Achilles heel. [ATTACH=CONFIG]535821[/ATTACH]
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 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!

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.
