You should see the mugrugs I made for home, crooked and threads hanging off and I haven't gotten around to binding them but we use them. hmm I'm not sure I should be admitting that. I wouldn't mind a review on the Gem sometime once you get to know it.Rachaeldaisyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15437603769773251690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8819822382900769742.post-44988793386513913912011-02-17T08:24:05.633+10:002011-02-17T08:24:05.633+10:00You are way too hard on yourself.It looks lovely t...You are way too hard on yourself.It looks lovely to me but I'm unclear on how you use it. Do you wrap the mug in it when you take it somewhere or do you just stand the mug on it a bit like a coaster?<br />At CWA meetings lots of the ladies carry their mugs in cute little bags so they don't get broken enroute.<br />Cheers<br />HelenHelsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15136273834165751276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8819822382900769742.post-3005895596851810432011-02-16T22:45:49.667+10:002011-02-16T22:45:49.667+10:00Well I agree with what everybody else says - it...Well I agree with what everybody else says - it's absolutely lovely and you are being way too hard on yourself.

You did a whole lot of work there, piecing, dresdening, love the hand stitching too. That is really fab! <br />Some famous quilting chick once said something along the lines of 'you've got your nose too far in your quilt'. I think you need to stand back and look at the whole as it is really awesome! <br /><br />PS. And the squares quilt in your last post is totally awesome too!Kirsty @ Bonjour Quiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05177991521347107396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8819822382900769742.post-86996107903394439082011-02-16T20:36:40.586+10:002011-02-16T20:36:40.586+10:00I think your mug rug looks absolutely gorgeous.

Give it a week or two and I bet you'll love it. If not, send it to me because I think it's beautiful. And I'm not just saying that.Lynne (Lily's Quilts)https://www.blogger.com/profile/12706577666898878440noreply@blogger.com
