Keep in mind ours are larger than hers :)
Everyone knows Nadine and I have been on Vacation ;) We have chatted about a lot of awesome new sewing ideas.. one of the ideas is a new craze that is sweeping the Cyber world of blogs and we would like to share this with you in swap form... Mug Rugs. 
Photo from Patchwork Pottery's Flickr Photostream.APP's Christmas Swap will be .. make your partner a fun and exciting Christmas Mug Rug. What is a Mug Rug??? After looking on the internet.. we have discovered it is hard to find Christmas photos of mug rugs to share with you. But we have a link for other types of Mug Rugs. http://www.flickr.com/groups/1533394@N22/ :)
The required size for our swap will be a 6”x10” or equivalent. It can be square, round, star, or any shape your creative brain comes up with. The Rug must be big enough for two Christmas Sugar Cookies, and a nice sized mug for a hot drink ;) (APP loves White Almond Hot Chocolate hint hint hint.)
Embellish your Mug Rug anyway you like.. but it must be coffee mug friendly. Must be able to sit without falling over from too much egg nog ;) Mug must sit flat on Rug… lol
Additional content for your swap will be:
One Christmas Coffee Mug (Micro safe)
One Hot Beverage packet (Cocoa, Spiced Cider, Gourmet Coffee, or Tea)
One Favorite Cookie Recipe
One Candy Cane (For stirring)
Sign ups start today and end on November 6th.. Partners will be assigned shortly thereafter.
