    I've always loved cows, Susan. The first item I remember getting was a white milk pitcher shaped like a cow, for the first Christmas hubby & I ever spent together. So I blame him for my obsession! When the kids were little, I poured milk into that a pitcher & then poured the milk from the pitcher into their cereal bowls. I still have that pitcher too. I never had a cowgirl outfit, but I made my oldest daughter the cutest little vest with a picture of a cow on the back. Both girls wore it. I must find that vest & take a photo of it. (Of course I still have the vest!) And the daughter who wore it first will be 30 next month! (Yikes! I'm getting really old!) And when we lived in Ireland, I had cows for neighbors & they would peek inside my kitchen windows. The stone wall was probably 3 feet from my kitchen window & they were on the other side of the wall, but they would line up right outside that window & watch me watching them! Actually, they weren't cows at all -- they were 5 bullocks & a little red bull.

    Your welcome KLTQuilts! It was fun to get to know you and exchange mug rugs. I enjoyed this project and look forward to another one in May!

    Melanie that is a very pretty mug rug you made for KLTQuilts. Pretty cards, and a nice key chain with those measurements.

    I just checked, and I am so glad to see that my partner Dotty has had her package from me delivered today.
