Our friend Meredith was kind enough to share this photo with all of us. She wrote:
First public shaming of the year!
Do you know how much I LOVE this photo?!!!
Who else has done this with the new card?!!!
The dear, talented, and wonderful Linda Fink Steinger has sent me the most beautiful gift…something I will cherish for the rest of my life and will be using every time I play Mah Jongg. Check out this magnificent Mah Jongg bag she needlepointed for me – I am so touched by this exquisite gift that I cannot find the right words of thanks.
My name is needlepointed on with fabulous iridescent beads and the words “Mah Jongg” are needlepointed onto the bag with a wonderful “glitz” thread. I wish these photos could show the intricate and amazing detail.
The back is a lovely black velvet:
The bag unzips all the way around three sides so you can see the beautiful green satin interior:
And here is a close-up of the intricate work that Linda has perfected:
This bag is the perfect size for my NMJL card, my coins for all the games I lose (!) and anything else I might need to bring along to the game table.
And don’t forget – Linda can make one of these for you, in custom colors and name. If you are interested, contact Linda at mahjbaglady@yahoo.com

Guess what I found waiting for me today in my mailbox…
I haven’t spent a lot of time with it yet but, at first glance, it looks like so much fun! I do think some of the hands are harder than on the 2014 card because in a number of the hands where last year’s card asked for a Pung of Flowers, this new card is asking for a Pung of Dragons instead. Much easier to get those Flowers, as we all know. So, this is going to be a fun challenge – can’t wait to start playing with this card!
Did you receive your card yet? If so, what are your thoughts on the new 2015 card?
