Be Still....My Mug Swap Goodness...

Last month I joined in on A Cuppa Kim's 2nd annual mug swap. My Muggy Sender (new friend) is
 Katy from Goodness Gathering
She is fairly new to the bloggy world and a fellow believer & home schooler, lover of thrifted stuff and loves her family ( My kind of gal). It was truly a blessing that her mug to me made it to my front porch when it did. It was a downer day for me...I opened the box and pleasantly surprised by
 the pretty mug with a sparrow on it....
It was the verse that really tugged on my heart...
As it reminded me of God's love for me, and to know He is in complete control.
 " Be still and know that I am God"
 Psalm 46:10.
Katy wrote me a sweet card and sent a few extra goodies.....( handmade bookmarks), she had mentioned how she tried to find a red mug of some sort for me (since I love red) But this particular mug jumped out at her, she felt she just needed to get it. Though it is not red...I am ever so thankul, grateful and blessed she sent such a lovely mug with a message I love and needed. So, every time I drink from this mug,
I will think of my new friend Katy
and praise God for His many blessings.
 
My assignment was to send a mug out to someone else.
Kim assigned me to Jill
I thought I would send her something fun and colorful.
 I found this cute Dick & Jane mug and made her a patchy Mug Rug.
 I have yet to hear from her to see if she liked it..


I hope she liked it. It was a fun swap...
I love mugs.

Mug Swap....

Hey there. Sorry it has been quiet around here. I have been fighting this bronchitis for almost three weeks already and it has really hit me bad. I have already been through a bout of antibiotics since it wasn't going away...But, I am still not getting better. So, off to the doctors again this morning to see what's going on. Last week I took some cough syrup and thought I was supposed to take two table spoons...well, I was actually supposed to take two teaspoons. That really did a number on me. My heart was racing and I felt shaky and weird for two days. Note to self...Follow directions on medications. It was a doozy. I managed to keep up on some house chores and getting this mug swap I signed up for ready to send to a gal in Illinois.
 I hope she likes the mug I found. I also made her a scrappy colorful mug rug...Just a little extra fun treat. Who doesn't love a mug? I have a thing for mugs...There are so many cute ones out there just waiting to be filled with a cuppa Joe or lovely warm tea...and not to forget some hot coco. Oh yeah. I don't know who my swapper is though since this swap is set up anonymously. I send a mug to someone, but I get a mug from someone else...cleaver. Can't wait to get mine. Well, I must get going. Please if you could take a teensy minute to pray for my health...I would so greatly appreciate it. Have a wonderful Wednesday.

Scrappy Christmas Tree Mug Rug

Is it Christmas yet???
I'm starting to sound like a kid...
I finished my Scrappy Christmas Tree Mug Rug this weekend.
 I made mine red of course!
I love it!

This really gets me in the mood for Christmas cheer!
 I even had some hot cocoa in a Santa mug I got thrifting.
 Isn't he the Jolly Ole' Fellow?

  

I made my own binding and added one of my fave Christmas

 fabrics to the back of my mug rug, which makes it reversable.

 

Hope this gets you in the mood...

I think it's almost time to play some Christmas music!

Have a blessed Sunday!
