I was just doing my laundry the other day, and 'pop'! came an inspiration. The thing with my quilty inspirations, is that I find out that usually someone has already thought of that...maybe 100 or 50 years ago.

As I was folding HD's plaid boxer shorts ( already too much information ops: ) I thought that this soft 100% cotton would be a great addition if you wanted a plaid in your quilt. Now, I have been saving shirts, in the hope that one day I would make a log cabin with the men's shirts, but how neat would it be if the other side was what in used for the 'other' side of what men wear? Almost a complete wardrobe in a quilt!
Has anyone done this?

Hmmmm. My sisters used to call me "Nance, Nance, Underpants" when we were kids, so it seems appropriate. But I'm not sure if I'd be able to actually use it as a mug rug.... (Although I probably won't use any of my mug rugs as actual mug rugs since they are just too beautiful! I'm more likely to set them on the table to admire while I put my mug and snack on a plate.)

Which brings me to the most incredible surprise in my mailbox today! I got a stunning mug rug from Ritzy. I'll take a picture and get it posted tonight. It's so beautiful it brought tears to my eyes!!

You all are too, too funny! I think I will pass on the boxer mug rug unless I could be assured they were unused--somehow I think my DH will think I have lost what little mind I have.
