Smile The butterfly mug...

Co-worker asked for a couple mug rugs and then I forgot all about it. I felt so bad and she wanted her monogram but just couldn't get it to look right. Set the project aside for a day and then went back to it. Insead of charging for two I just make one for her...no charge.

She likes pink and purprle so found floral fab. Did the butterfly out of dark purple and picked colors from the floral to appliq to the wings.

Brought it to work on Monday and she teared up. Why? No idea. Just thought she really liked it...wrong. She told me a story.

Her mom was very ill and dieing. Christine said, Mom when you are gone, how will I know when you are thinking of me. Her mom said, every time you see a butterfly, my dear.

I had no idea they had this discussion.

Devine intervention? I think so!
