I'm curious to see the QAL. I found cutting the squares to be tedious, but I got most of the pks done. I thought this would put a dent in my boxes (I sort by color) but not really. I love, love fabric. During high school years I worked in a fabric shop and fell in love w remnants. Concord cotton was 79 cents a yard!!

Welcome to Onalee and Dotty this is the best swap and most of us always need more candies. I especially like all the different colors that come my way. This will be a great year.

So nice to see all the chatter here. I've been with my daughter six days now! We had a chubby bundle of squishy joy on the 10th. Had some complications on the 12th that put my daughter in the ICU. But everyone's home now and getting lots of grandma love! Tonight I took my 11yrold GD to the Joann's Presidents' Day sale and we bought 1/2 yard of every 60% off Valentine's print. We're going to make baby sister a Valentine's quilt and big sister one too. Backed in 50% off coupons minky and 20% off the entire purchase. I'm not a big Joann's fan, but it's a small store here in Minot and I saved way more than I spent. I bet there's even enough fabric to cut some for my bday swap cards.

I reeeeeally don't need to do this, seeing as how I've still got the vast majority of my candies from the last swap still waiting on me to use them, but it sure is fun sending and receiving packages. Hmmm.

I'll look this evening and see what fabrics I've got on hand, and will let you know for sure by morning. I've got 15 sets already put together, so half of the work is already done.

I spent my day on Saturday sorting and stacking candies and wrapping them and stuffing envelopes. I'm waaaay ahead now since I also bought postage for 30. How many are we up to now????

I believe we have 25 confirmed... and moonrise is on the fence! C'mon moonrise, you know you want to! We are going to give you a way to use those candies from last year with some quiltalongs.

Join us Moonrise, one year worth of candy is not enough. I am working on the Growing Up Odd quilt and will use all my candies from 2014/2015 as well as a good portion from the 2015/2016 swap. You know you always want more candy.
