No Ring November

Thanks to Carla at Creating’ in the sticks for organizing this blog hop. 
This summer I celebrated my 40th birthday with a 40 and fabulous girls weekend at Berkeley SpringsWest Virginia with a group of friends.  All but one of us were turning 40 this year so I thought a little gift for each would be nice.  I thought mug rugs would be nice so we could sit our drinks on them to not get them mixed up. By the time I got around to making anything I was pressed for time and forgot to take  pictures of all of them, but I was able to get pictures of my own and two of the others. 
My mug rug-the thread even looks like Mettler, which is my machine’s preferred brand! 

My friend Jess is a nurse and pink is her favorite color.  

My friend Jena loves cherries.  

Then I decided that since their hop is in the fall I needed something more seasonal.  I am participating in a block exchange from Fat Cat Patterns in her Facebook group.  When I cut out my gnomes I accidentally made an extra maroon hat, so I made him into a mug rug as well.
