Remember how I packed 10 projects for the retreat, and planned to have 7 quilt tops, 3 quilt backs, 1 finished banner, 1 mug rug, and 16 purses? Well, here’s how I fared. The results may surprise you.

The Chicago Modern Quilt Guild is having a Mug Rug exchange (suggested by yours truly.) I thought it would be fun to do something outside of a guild meeting, and maybe help get some participation from online members who can’t make it to a meeting. Really, my motivations were just simple envy at other people who do these fabulous online bees and get the most lovely items, and I wanted some too!
