Norma,
So glad you like it. Wasn't sure as I had not seen any thread painting like this. The pattern is from a quilting stencil I realy like.

[Reetzbobeetz]

Very nice Jane, well done on all the thread painting. Norma, enjoy your precious mug rug.

Really pretty Jane

Jane, I love your oak leaves! I think that the variety of techniques being used on our mug rugs is fantastic. I'm sure that Norma is glowing...nothing like receiving a package from a mug rugger to make your day!

[suehenyon]

Yeah, Jane! Lucky Norma!

[lotti]

Yeah, Norma! Great MugRug Jane!!! :P

[idaho]

[Zarah]

Should I be ashamed to say I use it :?:
No, I don't think so. I really enjoy it

[lotti]

After all, that's what they're for

[Reetzbobeetz]

I really hope people use my mug rugs.

Jane, I love what you did with reproducing the smaller design into the center--so original, delicate and beautiful. Congratulations, Norma, on receiving such a beautiful mug rug.

Speaking of Norma and mug rugs... I could not concentrate anymore on Chinese Whispers until I did this posting. Last night I found in my mailbox a very nice note from Norma on an embroidered card--so beautiful that I thought I had received two mug rugs!

Oh, what a beautiful mug rug! and the detail and thinking that went into it exquisite! a beautiful flower with muted fabrics that mimic an ocean wave for this crusty old sailor... the colors of the ocean along the coast between Corsica and Sardegna on an early spring morning, and then a golden ochre fabric with an underlying hint of pale blue green (I might be mistaken on the colors but they are just gorgeous). I've never seen the edging done the way Norma has and I am hoping she will teach me how to do it. I'm in love with this mug rug, Thank you, Norma! :P :P :P

I wonder if this posting will be enough to go back to Chinese Whispers or if I'll just have to have an espresso in my Sardinian espresso cup before going back to work! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Beautiful MugRug and beautiful card. Fabulously done Norma! Another winner... We're all getting lots of beautiful, fun and fabulous muggies!
Another great exchange at TQS! Just love my TQS family!

What an exquisite mug rug you received, Renata. That opens up all kinds of ways to express these lovely little works of art. Thanks, Norma, for working "outside the box." This is gorgeous!
