    Robinlee, mailed your package today as well. You should have yours in about a week.

    Forgot to take sneak peek photos, or any photos at all! I hope both of you ladies have the ability to post pictures.

    CarolinePaj -- lucky you! Five days in Spain! You're allowed a breather -- & then it's the sewing room for you! LOL

    Looking forward to seeing photos of mug rugs!

    I received my delightful mug rug and goodies from Ctyankee! The zebra on the mug rug is adorable! It's 3d and has yarn mane and tail. A matching thread catcher and Kleenex holder, herb tea, and a chocolate bar! I love it all! Thanks Ctyankee! You package must not have arrived today. Tomorrow

    Congratulations, Caroline. My son got married in May so I know how much fun but how exhausting weddings are! Glad you had a good time.

    Did someone say 'dolphins'? Look at this beautiful Hawaiian style quilt kit... dolphins and turtles. It makes a huge 42" square wall hanging.

    Default Extra MR for Someone Special

    Here is William, the Hippo, the iconic zoo animal who resides at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
    The first William is a little statue, but he has inspired many interpretations. William has gone to a dear friend who is sitting out this month.

    P.S I printed a photo of William on heat transfer paper & ironed him on cotton. The transfer was not perfect,
    but gave the image an aged look!!
