Not this time for me as I have a queue of projects a mile long.

I cherish the mug rugs I have and use them in my sewing room, sometimes I even put mugs on them!

Enjoy yourselves  :thumb:

Not for me either, unfortunately, as I still can't get back to sewing. :( But I, too, cherish the mug rugs I was given by @Celia and @Iminei in other swaps. They are loved and in daily use when I'm sewing. :loveit: I'll watch everyone's progress with interest.

I’ll take part!  Will be good to be involved with one again as it’s fun and a small project should fit in fine- I have been doing bits of sewing lately!  I’m usually a winter person but I’m really looking forward to spring this year.

I’m really busy just now with DIY in my sister’s and daughter’s house - and maybe son’s too. I’ve also got lots of knitting going on in the evening, so I might sit this one out this time, though I expect I’ll be mad at myself when I see the gorgeous swaps!
