    Hey Marymo, just tacked on the labels. Could you please finish up that hand work for me. This left hand will not function quite like it should. I am hanging on till next week so then I will be able to hang onto things better. Good thing the right works for the coffee mug, work may not like me otherwise. You should see me drive the stick shift with one hand, it is quite the site. At least the doc says I can move my fingers within the day of surgery. Was concerned may not be able to sew for a few weeks.

    Oh Marymo, they are going in mail today. You are so going to love at least one of them really a lot. It turned out so cool. No, my quilting on the cirles was not "perfect" but it still looks good. One of them has an antique doily on it and yes, years ago I crocheted the extras that are on it as well. Dug out of the stash of extras I have around to use up some craft stuff. I am excited about them. I made five and kept the coffee cut one for a little gift to the gal at the driving school. She saw me working on them and I could see her drool. So have to give her one.

    Hi, QuilterMomma ... I like doing handwork so will be glad to finish them up. I am much slower than most of you ... for a variety of reasons, but most of all, because I keep making changes as a project proceeds. I do hope your surgery goes well, it is difficult working with one hand ... and shifting gears in a car cannot be good. I can remember doing that several years ago when several bones in my wrist were broken.

    Take a break ... have a successful surgery and healing time.

    I have finally got my mug rugs finished, will get labels on them today and post a sneak peak later.

    Have 4 round ones to go to LindaC for this swap

    Have 4 odd shaped ones to go to nancia (our only little swap)

    It has been fun but oddly enough I enjoyed making the odd shaped ones more than the round ones

    I agree ... these have been fun to make once I got started and let my creative thoughts flow. I'm looking forward to seeing them all!

    On another note, a couple of the ones I made are double sided and I used my creativity to sign them, thus I did not use labels. So I'm wondering if everybody else put labels on their mug rugs.

    Thanks, lady!!
