    So here is the little beauty from Lois. I love the stitches you have done, both by hand and machine. Those silver things must have been a challenge. They are very beautiful. What machine do you use? There is a stitch that I don't recognize . It's number 3 from the left, the golden colored decorative stitch.
    I apologize for the color to not be absolutely correct. The blue is more muted in real life. Thanks again, Lois.
    Edited: forgot to say thank you for the tea and the beautiful orange rick-rack, but I meant it ops:

      And here's my mug rug from Lois. It's an absolutely delightful combination of beautiful machine stitches and fabulous hand "stitchery" (as Laura W would say). I love it! You have inspired me, Lois, to try this technique. The envelope came equipped with fun blue rick rack and some soothing tea, too. I love it all! Thanks so much!

                            Those are really beautiful, Lois!!

                            I'd like to trade with you, too, Andree, if you can take any more on your list. Looks like your list is already getting long so I'm not sure how many you want to make. I have a few on my list still, so putting me at the end of your list would be wonderful, if that works for you.

                              Nancy,
                              It works for me too. I guess there is not preset limit of time, you would be the 4th on my list. I'll send you my snail mail address.

                                Andree,
                                Don't think we had 'target' dates, just 'can't do until' dates when people get busy with life. Not the case with me right now, so will probably get started on something and get it in the mail to you but will let you when it gets in the post so you can be on the look out for it. Oooh, this is going to be fun!!
