    These birds shall never see a drop of tea!


    Love it Lois! It is precious!!! You're right Terrie, Una Verdadera Artista!


    Robin, Renata, Rita, Lois, you are all doing a great job with those gorgeous mug rugs. Congrats to the happy recipients!

      Terri what a lovely gift. Well done Lois.

        Beautiful job Lois.

        At this rate no one is going to have a useable mug rug for coffee & cake :roll: :lol:

            Beautifully done, Lois! Terrie, you are a lucky girl, but then ALL of us mug riggers are lucky...do you think it's Rita's shamrocks doing it?!

                Nice, Lois, Terri gets to go to the beach every time she looks at the birds! Well done!

                  All the mugrugs I have seen so far are wonderful. The talent in this group is amazing. I have been working on some mugrugs, but so far only mugly ugly ones. I will be trying again after work today to make something worthy to send out. Great job to all of you.

                    My goal is to send one out and have someone report, "Now this is a Mug Rug. It would do well with a few coffee stains." I think I can make it happen.

                      I think you have fallen well short of the goal, Lois. You will have to work harder! So far you've only been able to produce beautiful works of art. I'm not sure you're capable of creating something needing a coffee stain or two.

                          Well Lois, I'm not a coffee drinker but I love tea, although for the time been and due to chemo I can't stand to drink anything even barely warm, leave alone hot. I didn't use to like cold drinks or water with ice and I can't get enough of it. Anyways I just want you to know that as soon as I'm back to "normal" I'll be using my mug rug and probably will get a few tea stains in it, which I think will just enhance it's beauty.

                              You can always get your finished mug rug plasticized. :?

                                (NOT!!) is right! But if you really want to use your mug rug and worry about stains, nothing that a little Scotchgard won't help!
