The quilt tops all look lovely. Thank-you for the numerous ideas you have posted.
I will be starting my projects in January. Too many other projects to do 1st. I have 2 -3 projects planned already.
I received candy from Jaba, J Cody. Nlosgrrl, noraB, and Djmat. I will collect and open early on my birthday. I have all of my envelops in a large shoe box. Just patiently waiting for my big day. Thank-you everyone.

I have been working on Growing up Odd for a while now. When ever I get the yen to sew but don't have all the plans worked out in my head, I make another set of 25. or what ever step I am at the time. I will make a massive quilve with the 2.5 inch squares. Might adjust it down a little.

You can, you know! Opening them as they arrive is purely a personal choice. I did it that way my first year in the swap, and then this year I held them all until my birthday. It's fun either way!

Jaba, loving yours. Like Dottie dodge said, the white looks like flowers. Very pretty.
Thanks for the nice comments, ladies.

So glad you are sewing Janice, it's great therapy. At least it was and is for me 
hope it works for you too.
Michelle prayers and hugs being sent your way, it's very hard mentally and physically. Be sure to take care of yourself too.
I've started working on another quilt too. Between the b-day candies and SheriR's swap...plus what I cut from left overs, I have to make them into something Set this one a little different, at least for me.[ATTACH=CONFIG]534443[/ATTACH]
