Thanks, all. The fabric is one piece, from the print-on-demand company Spoonflower.

Thanks, all. The fabric is one piece, from the print-on-demand company Spoonflower.

Again, Susan, that mug rug was really beautifully interesting. The way you quilted it, or was is the way it was dyed, or both that made it look as though there were opaque cubes and clear cubes. Really very beautifully interesting. The quilting was not bad either. Nice work!

I missed a lot of mug rugs... beautiful, Maureen, Susan and Charae!

[Rita C.]

Lovely mug rugs Susan and Charae. Robyn and Ritzy you are lucky recipients.

[Susan B.]

Lois, that fabric is just plain fun. Yes, the way it is dyed (painted?) makes the blocks look translucent and glasslike, so dimensional. I was able to purchase a yard with the prize money, and had fun deciding where to cut a chunk out because it is different all over. The thread-work was practice using gold thread free-motion. The feather, I digitized with embroidery software after getting permission from a quilter online to use one of her quilts as a background to trace.

Maureen, Susan and Charae--beautiful, clever, and creative mug rugs!! Not sure why I haven't (again!!) been getting notices about new posting but just now caught up with everyone. AND, it is so nice to see Terrie again--hope the atelier is not full of elfish mischief but good old fashioned creativity and healing.

Would like to take this opportunity to wish all my mug rug and lounge lizard friends world-wide a wonderful, peaceful holiday season and blessed New Year.

Yesterday I got a lovely mug rug from Renata. She also sent a fat quarter in beautiful blue colors. I'm waiting for some natural light to take photos. We don't have much of that at the moment. Another grey and rainy day today.

[ANNE E.]

Merry Christmas and a happy and peaceful new year to everyone.

Merry Christmas everyone. Safe travels, Nancy and everyone else on the go for the holidays. I wish you all peace and joy. Even at Christmastime and for some especially at Christmastime life can be difficult. Especially for them I wish a bit of peace and joy mixed in with whatever difficulties they might have.

I spent yesterday making cookies for the holidays :shock: . I usually do this by myself. I have told you all before that I don't bake. It is kind of like a comedy of errors so having "help" to do this is not necessarily helpful :roll: . SO, I made my usual mess of flour all over me, the table and floor but I added to my talent by having a bowl of powered sugar drop on the dog :| . Egg separating--lots of practice for that--first one came open with the yoke broken :x . Then we have the "how many times can you burn yourself" talent--got all the way to three this year...remember I said DH helped. So, I think I am done with cookie making for this year. I have two weeks off from school and I may treat myself between Christmas and New Year :wink: .

To all of my TQS family--may your Christmas (and other seasonal holidays) be filled with love and may your New Year be filled with good health and lots of quilting.
