    Ditto about Danny's border, love it.
    I can't wait to see your CW quilt, Rosemary! I'll show you mine if you show me yours!... :wink: BTW, CW was the first piece I ever quilted, had no choice... Danny's done my other ones on her HQ 16 just to get them off the pile of quilts waiting to be quilted because I was afraid of ruining them... after CW, I started looking forward to the quilting part, perfect or not, it was my work.

    Comment


      Whilst essing I was thinking that my CW (and everyone else's) if photographed and printed on fabric & then quilted could make great mug rugs (like what I achieved for Lois's muggie) and if we got really carried away we could each make a small version like this for everyone in the group so that finally we would all have a complete set. Or we could just print up small versions on fabric to swap and then we could make up our own quilt from the pieces. Of course we couldn't swap them before next May....

        What ever are you thinking Rosemary :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: Tut! tut. Giving me a nervous breakdown here :lol: :lol: :lol:

        Good idea after May

          Hope you're past ESSing, Rosemary... you've got less than a week to go! :shock: I'd like to see Maureen around and in good health for a long time and she certainly doesn't have time for a nervous breakdown! :lol:

            Exactly - I certainly didn't mean that we should be sharing them before the Grand Unveiling. Just it would be something to bear in mind for getting some really good pictures for printing.

                Rita's new mug rugs are amazing! Simple, yet very intricate. This is such a fun and talented group of lounge lizards!

                Hmmm, Lorchen, even from here I can see the twinkle in your eye!

                    Rosemary....I think some kind of photo print of the collected CW group would be great !!
                    should be a way.... :?:

                    The mug rugs keep getting better and better !

                      Renata and Danny--well done. I do like that little lamb. Very cute.
                      Danny--are you open a mug rug list or was that just special for Rita? I have all of mine made so would be willing to exchange if you want.
                      A while back I told you folks we were getting close to 200 mug rugs posted--well today Renata's muggie to Rita made 200 with Danny's being 201--WooHoo!
                      I think we are having fun! :lol:

                        Thank you all for the very kind remarks! Ritzy, wow, 200+ muggies? That's amazing and great! I hope this goes on for a while...

                          Rosemary, should I be worried that I think I understand how you think?
                          In any case, I like the way you think. :lol:

                          Comment


                            Ritzy,
                            Thank you so much for your kind words and even though I would love to participate in these exchanges, time just won't allow it right now. However, I am willing to keep your offer in mind if I should find that time permits. Right now other people are counting on me to get their tops quilted.
