The Stash Sisters had a coaster mat and cup exchange on Saturday. I hooked a sheep out of yarn and wool to match a mug I found at the British Isles tea shop here in the Village. I even tried something different in terms of finishing. I actually crocheted the edge with yarn to match the sheep. I choose this edging because the mat was circular and I thought it would lay flat nicely and give a nice bind off so the back would look as good as the front.
And here is the wonderful mug and mat that I received from one of my dearest friends Lurie. I love it so much and am drinking tea from it as I am writing this. A little cottage in England on a bluff...what a wonderful place to be!

Andrea posted a thank you and an update this morning. Apparently votes are still being counted. The top ten vote-getters remain in the race, and the winner will be selected from among them by the people giving away the goats. Here's with my fingers crossed! Best of luck Andrea!
