    first off I would like to start with the news of not one but two losses on the board. I am so sorry Dabbler for the loss of your father I know how very hard that can be. And Anastasia my sincere apologies for now realizing what a loss you have had also. You are so very young and loss is got to be very hard for you also. He had to be so young and we never expect things like that so early. I am sad for both ofyou.

    Mug rugs: I would be thrilled to get either of those two mug rugs Jaba! I am a watermelon patterned fabrics lover. I would snag that to put by my chair in a heart beat. its a happy mug rug! and wait! there was a very cute popcicle mug rug that is shown also! I love it and the fact its versitle for double use is always a great thing if your anything like me lol. I spill lots of stuff. accidentally. all the time. oops! did I miss any mug rugs? I am forever missing something think I go back far enough and one slips by me. I have no idea how that happens and I would love to apologize if I have. Its not on purpose. honest!

    I received a wonderful mug rug from Crqltr, along with a little plaque that reads "Enjoy the little things in life, for one day you'll look back & realize they were the big things." So true! Also, a lovely FQ with tulips, a sweet little bar of soap in the shape of Michigan & also made in Michigan (what a treat!), & a package of coffee (not a coffee drinker, but hubby is, so that's okay!). I received the package last night when we got home from the zoo, but this morning I found another little item wrapped up in batting -- & it's a cow! A Michigan cow, of course! Now that's a sweet little addition to my ever-growing cow family!

    Here's some photos:

    And my one-and-only Michigan cow:

    Thank you so much, Crqltr! This is a wonderful swap to receive! I love that mug rug -- what is the name of that a block? It's perfect! Everything is wonderful & appreciated, & extremely thoughtful! Thank you again!

    And Crqltr requested that I post a photo of what I sent to her. Hope these photos aren't too dark. One of the fabrics is very dark blue with colorful stars on it. Well, let's see how this works:

    And here's the mug rug close up:

    The friendship star is my favorite star, & I just love to make them!

    some very nice mug rugs coming in. Almost can qualify for the mini quilts.
    Each one so pretty in their own way. Love all the extra goodies too.
    that chocolate looks so yummy, I feel like eating some right now.
    Love the cute cow. I remember when I was a kid, I had a cow creamer.
    I loved that little cow so much.
    anyway...great swaps ladies.

    Jaba you got two really great mug rugs from Karen. I love the colors in the patriotic one and the watermelon with the ants was too cute.
    Pamela and Crqltr you both made and got wonderful mug rugs and all the extras. Nice friendship blocks and the shooting stars fabric. Both are wonderful

    I want to offer my deepest condolences to Anastatia in the loss of her brother, and to Dabbler in the loss of her father. So very sorry for both of you.
