Mug Rug Exchange - Do it yourself style!

[Lois B.]

Good to hear from you, Lorchen. Keep getting the best medical advice you can. Part of Wendy's advice seemed very wise, the rest not so much. :lol: :lol: Take care of yourself. As for being a wine lover, yes I am, but I have a lovely mug rug from you that has not yet been posted. I think I've had an aversion to using my camera for quite some time. I've not forgotten. Stay well.

[Nancy R.]

Good luck with your decisions, Lorchen. I hope the medical issues get taken care of. I seem to just be at the end of menopause, so I can't imagine going back!!

I recently had a financial adviser run the numbers and I'll be able to afford to retired in less than 10 years, so now I'm just counting down. If I could afford to, I would retire today. But if there are negatives for you, you definitely need to take some time over the holiday to evaluate the options before jumping into anything. I know you'll make the right decisions.

[Nancy R.]

Sounds like good advice, Wendy. My hubby has one year left and he's always wondering whether he should bother doing it or not.

I only had an old aunt, so I'd bet that a baby aunt would be lots of fun!

[Nancy R.]

Well, Lorchen you top it all! No one else I know has ever had to decide to retire or to have another baby at the same time!
What a conundrum :lol: :lol: :lol:

Well, obviously Terrie is feeling better--lol!

Lorchen--I always knew you were a unique person but to have to be warned against pregnancy...? Praying you will have the wisdom you need to make the decisions that will work best for you.

I have not been on the forum in quite some time. Life has really gotten in the way. So, I was pleasantly surprised when in the mail I received this beautiful mug rug from Cathy. I really didn't think I was on anyone's list. Cathy thank you for the mug rug it is lovely. It really made my day. I will get you one in the mail very soon.

It's so pretty and quite original, well done Cathy

[Nancy R.]

That really is lovely, Vicki. Good job Cathy!!

[Deborah W.]

I'm thinking I've missed something. I just 'googled' 'Christmas House Quilt", but didn't seem to find out what you gals are referring to. Any hints?

This link was under a different thread, like, what's everyone up to? I need to remember to bookmark it Right Now! because I always have to go looking for the link.

Terrie, I hope this helps!

Speaking of houses and buildings, weren't those architectural quilts by the Terry Grant awesome in this week's Show? I'm collecting the Quilters Newsletter house patterns, but free-form has a lot of appeal.

[Lois B.]

I agree, Susan. Awesome. Can't believe our 1/2 size BOM Geeks ( :lol: :lol: :lol: ) aren't all over that show.

[E.M. T.]

This 1/2 sizer has made three house quilts....and has one in the UFO pile !!! I'll skip this one !

[Susan B.]

It's true, our half-sized BOMers tell us how to do it, which was missing on this show. Thank YoU Andree!

[Andree B.]

Now I'm confused.... Probably because I didn't read all the threads.... :? :?

What are you talking about??? Are you asking me to figure out another half-size pattern?
