I’ll be away for weekend to ‘celebrate’ my too big birthday in middle of nowhere with my family  |O. Will post the photo if WiFi is up to it!

I received the most beautiful autumnal decorated envelope yesterday.  Thank you Hernibs, that alone must have taken you ages!

Contents are amazing too - so different from what I did myself.  I'll wait to post pics, especially as we've had a few more days of summer weather so the change of season can wait.

Glad you liked them Lowena. 
I've never done applique before so was just taking it slow and hoping it was acceptable.

A parcel has arrived for me but I’m not opening yet so I don’t know if it is from my allocated swap partner or the Phantom Mug Rug Swapper of Old Blandford Forum  :devil:

I've also received a package from Blandford Forum - thank you so much.
Mine has been sitting for the last 3 weeks waiting to be posted but as so many others have sent theirs I will get mine in the post too.

I've received a package all the way from Staten Island, NY - very exciting. :) I'll post a photo of the contents, and the beautiful hand-made card, on Sunday now that we're agreed on a posting date. Looking forward to showing the mug rug made especially for me, and to seeing everyone else's.  <3

Oh dear.

I read the first page which said posting BY Autumn Equinox and have been working to that deadline.
Mine will definitely not reach the recipient by Sunday as it’s going overseas.

Sorry!  :S

Mine will probably not make the post until tomorrow, yesterday I decided I didn’t like either of the ones I had done enough to send them to anyone, so I started again and except  for the size, it s a little large for a mug rug I an pleased with it, I even bound it :loveit: 
Don’t get me wrong its not perfect but better. 

My problem now is it not fit in the envelope I was going to send it in and as I am at work today it will be tomorrow before I can do anything about it.
