    Sewed mine this afternoon and still have the binding to do. I make a set of 2 for my partner but that is my choice, figure the other is for hubby or company . They will mail early. Still waiting on one for April.

    dfelker, congrats on the weight loss. I'm sure you feel a lot better now. Enjoy it!

    I'm wondering what I was thinking signing up for the next swap when I have a wedding May 30 to prepare for! My son's wedding, and I have MAJOR alterations to do on the bride's gown, as well as on my formal, too. I'd better get the mug rug done early and mail as soon as I get my partner. The things I do to myself...

    Oh a wedding! what were you thinking is right! lol good thing your fast girl. You will do all and do it smoothly as always. Make sure to share pictures!!!

    dfelker YOU GO GIRL! wowsa!!! Your doing great. Its not easy to lose weight at all. Once you are over say.. 21 it sticks. what is with that? I have a good 40 lbs to lose myself but I also have lots of water weight they just can only pull so much off. it is like gaining 3 or 4 lbs a week til your ready to explode with water. Not fun at all. I will one day get a new kidney and the water should come on down. I am ready for that! In the mean time I will watch your weight lose progress and route you on. Yahoo! for you.

    Sign ups are going nicely. Make sure you get yours in today. Last day for sign ups is April 30th for those who are curious. We will be giving out names on the 1st. so hurry hurry hurry! sign up today!

    Congrats Dorothy!!!! Great job - you have inspired me to be more "mindful" of my weight challenge Determination is the key to anything we want to accomplish in life . . . even in participating in these fun mug rug exchanges!!! Looks like we're going to have a great May mug rug exchange

    sewbizgirl, make your mug rug today, only takes an hour, then you'll
    have it done in time to ship and you won't be late. We already know
    the theme, flowers, garden, so make it now and you'll be done in no
    time, and it won't interfere with th wedding. that's what I would do.
    As soon as I hear the there, I finish mine up. go for it now.

    Thanks Lynnie! You are a great cheerleader! I will try and do as you say and get a pretty mug rug together for *someone*....

    I had dreams about the wedding last night, about not getting everything done! I feel so guilty for procrastinating on the wedding dress that I have GOT to get started on it. Wedding is almost a month away, and that time will blaze by.

    Oh, you still have the wedding dress to make, didn't know that, so maybe not join in.
    that's a big undertaking. Other than the dress, what else are you doing???? Isn't
    the dress enough for one person to do?? but you're doing more???Just being nosy, sorry.
