    and if OK with you, your muggies are going in our exhibition early September so will be admired again. Doubt if any German truck drivers will be there

      It's definitely ok with me - what a great idea. Don't forget to take a photo to show us please.

      Comment


        Yes, Wendy, absolutely fine! And like Rita, photo please?

        Comment


          I now belong to 2 guilds. When I get there I will take my Mug Rugs for Show 'n Tell. What a great idea. BTW I am still dealing with the fallout from hyperfocusing on my segment of the Chinese Whisper Challenge which was immediately followed by a deadline to finish another quilt by 8/20. As soon as I clear a bit of the chaos I will be back in the Mug Rug business. Can't wait!

            I'm show and telling all of yours...so it's A-OK with me, Wendy !

            Comment


              Absolutely OK to show them. I have put mine up on the wall of fame in my sewing room, so everyone coming there admire them all.

                OK with me Wendy although I don't think you have one from me.

                Comment


                  Love the story about the truck drivers. The Mug Ruggers and Lounge Lizards is morphing into much more than ever (I) imagined at first!

                  For our program this year, instead of the usual way we have out Christmas potluck party with games and prizes. This year, we have planned for everyone to go home with a gift. We are getting everyone who wants to participate, to make a mug rug. Then, at Christmas, they will bring it in, all wrapped; and, then we play a game where everyone wins! So, everyone gives a MR and everyone gets one just like here!
                  I'm going to bring in my mug rugs as a demo of what people can do, since there is a wide variety of skill levels at guild! Plus, it will save our guild from having to buy the gifts, so we will have more $$ for teaching!

                  Thanks to you fellow lounge lizards - lots of people will see your mug rugs, besides the truck drivers.

                    Hi Wendy - It would be fine with me for you to show my mug rug if you had one of mine. So, do you want to exchange? Or are you too full up to add any more? I probably wouldn't get to yours until Sept.

                      Wendy, you are very welcome to nail my single malt carpet to the wall.

                      Lotti, love the story! I wonder if the same guys would deliver to the UK if I buy one of these all singing, all dancing desks?!
