Forward Momentum

Thank you so much to each of you who commented and emailed about the loss of our cat.  Your sympathies and cyber hugs are appreciated.  Thank you for taking the time to extend them.
Sewing projects have been keeping me busy.  These mug rugs are, unfortunately, the only ones I can share right now.  The rest will have to wait a month or so.  But you will see them, never fear.

As you may have noticed, I have a tendency to have lots of irons in the fire.  And as someone has pointed out to me recently, I should take care not to get burned trying to juggle them all.  Good advice.  But I'm not likely to follow it.  Case in point--these mug rugs in Amy Butler's Soul Blossom.  Scraps from this quilted throw were the perfect way to jump right in to something different and finish up quickly.  I like the idea of having some of these on hand.  You never know when you might want or need to give a special gift.  And these are sure to please. 

Have yourself a great weekend!

    I suffer from the same burn marks, although my irons all involve paper and books. ;)
    You do pretty darn well with that juggling! Love the mug rugs!

    I love that flower. Is it some kind of iris? Very pretty. The mug rugs are beautiful. You and your irons! You do so well to keep them in order.

    What a stunning photo of the iris! Beautiful mug rugs! I know about irons in the fire. I agree with the others, you're great at juggling, you always seem so organised and you have forward momentum for sure!

    I love that flower. Is it a trillium?

    Your mug rugs are very pretty and cheerful.

    Sorry to hear about your cat. It's the same as losing a family member.

    Thanks, Denise.

    The flower is an African Iris (Dietes iridioides). They're both hardy and beautiful--a good combination in our yard.
