I hope my swap partner isn't on here ! hee hee Here is a mugrug I made and a set of 2 coasters from my stash so far for 2015. Do you think the quilting looks ok? I've only done a couple of things like this on my older Pfaff model 78.

OK it's January 12th and I have not spent any money on fabric, patterns, magazines or dies; however, I have looked at them. The fabric I looked at would of cost me over $75. The patterns a mere $15, the magazine $8.00 and the dies at least $65. So, if I just don't buy the stuff I've got an extra $163. At this rate I'm going to be very rich before the end of the year gets here. Right? Sigh...

Hcim55...The Animal Crackers quilt is great. Glad you thought to match fabric to magazine articles!
Rhonda L...I like how you do your math and you should be rolling in dough if you make it through the year.LOL!
Sewred..your MR and coasters are great. Someone will love them.

Ohh such wonderful creations are here to enjoy!

Krista, I loved your beautifully designed quilt. What a joy to look at.
Hcim55, your Animal Cracker quilt soothed me. I thought I was looking at an ocean of water. How smart of you.
Sewred, mug rugs and coasters what a delightful gift and how darling they are.

Good job with using that stash and not buying more fabric than needed, way to go!!

Ok, here we go. Today I saved about $50. I didn't buy the special on MSQT. Even though the special did not cost $50, I would of spent at least that amount because I like to justify the shipping cost of $5.00, so I always buy more. It doesn't have to make sense to understand that right? I'm adding the $50 to the $163 so now I've got at least an extra $200!

Very nice. Like the colors.
