I saw these the other day, I have bought charm packs, but I don't think I'd buy the mini-charms.

I haven't read the entire thread, but these would be perfect for a Mondo Bag. I can't remember whose design it is, but I LOVE the bag. It calls for 280 2-1/2 inch squares, so it would be GREAT to have them precut. I used batiks in mine, and I cut them from a jelly roll. I made mine in a Sue Hausmann class. Everyone used different fabrics, and they all looked terrific. It's a BIG bag - big enough to take a large quilt to Guild for show-and-tell.

I like the idea very much as I do postage stamp quilts. I love the charm packs and have a bunch of them which I use all the time for so many different projects. The thing about the charm packs is that you can see the pattern and if you really love it then buy yardage. Between charm packs and layer cakes I'm in quilting heaven so bring on the 2.5" lovelies.

Would they work for the mini twister?

I would use them to make a mini quilt for my mini quilt stand.

A lady in our guild used these to make a teeny tiny twister quilt!

Jan in Va: Thanks for the photos. I have two shoe boxes of 2.5" squares to use. And the second quilt in your photos...I have that pattern and had forgotten about it. Looks great in your color choices.

When I sent squares to Moda for those quilts they were making for Quilts of Valor, they sent me a package of 2 1/2" squares to thank me. I have put them away and now I can't find them. I will use them (when I find them) on a postage stamp quilt, I think. They are very nice, but I haven't seen them in a store.
