Jctn...nice catch on another pattern for our candy squares. 
I don't hand quilt - I found that it made my wrist hurt outrageously. I do FMQ on my 9" midarm machine. I do like to hand piece and I love applique though.
BTW - here is another possible idea for a quilt using the squares - no pattern but you can probably figure it out or go to the designer's website: http://www.mccallsquilting.com/mccal..._Quilt_Pattern

For the checkerboard I'm trying to keep it medium to light pastels with floral patterns...I'm picking them out from the "candy" I received. the while fabric is a very faint white on white...I want it to be soft & pretty looking...

Ok - March birthday envelopes went out Saturday 3-2-2013 - Happy Birthday to the following!!
Mary Ellen
Jarenie
Erin
Postage was .86 - I used #10 envelopes and they had the 60 degree template in them. I was told that normal postage was .66 with .20 added on because they could not go through the machine.
