    It's 48" square and I don't plan to add any borders. Just the binding.... It's meant to be a baby quilt. i put lots of juvenille prints in it.

    So where is yours, Jaba? Did you post it in the Scrappy Swoon thread? I wanna see!

    Barb, I got far behind at out of town work. Called home to have adult daughter mail charms to Jaba then I'll mail the rest of May BDs when & if I get home this weekend. Homesick for my sewing room!

    Jaba, I hope they get there by Friday! Forgive me, if they don't arrive in time. I do wish you a very happy birthday!

    Good grief, I usually plan better than this.
    hugs,
    dj

    I found kind of a cute pattern for our candies. Now it will take a little recalculation because it is not using 2 1/2" squares, but I figured we are all intelligent enough to figure out how to make it work.

    Very pretty!

    I received envelopes from: barbarakibler23, n10sgrrl, kele, and there's a light blue envelope that feels like it belongs to this swap, but it doesn't have a name or return address on it. The postmark says Denver, CO. Please let me know if this is yours. I'm hoping not to open any of them until my birthday. Thanks!

    Checking in. Neat projects ladies. Makes me want to go downstairs and sew, but I have to be at work in four hours. Better go back to sleep...

    Cute pattern, Anoka! Thanks for sharing... I think it could easily be adapted to our candies, BUT I also have a stash of 2" strips that would love to be that quilt!

    I think my quilting group thinks I'm nuts because we have "sew and tell" time and I'm always showing them the quilts I do with these little squares, and smaller. They mostly make big pieces, and fast designs, because we are making for charity. I just know I'm going to win some of them over to the 'dark side'... of scrappy quilting!
