I really need to use my candies! I have made a few quilts with them and my 2" squares, but there always seems to be more. Maybe it's because I cut my leftover scraps into candies and stuff them into the candy drawer, as I go! I was thinking, since I have multiples of so many, to do a granny square type quilt. I think they are pretty.

I still need help with lots of daily tasks that need two hands, so she opened and we ooed and ahhed and found matches and kitties and Dr. Suess, and airplanes, Christmas, sailboats and flip flops, and oh so many flowers. I already have plans for the many turquoise treats. A small wall hanging for my bathroom.

I started to list all of those who sent envelops but..... when I looked at my hand-dandy little check list, all were present and accounted for. Again, thank you for adding quilting surprises to my birthday. I am anxious to put them into action when the wrist says OK.

With Affection,
WMU Teach
