I forgot to mention. In my pic 2, I show two line on the sq. When I sew a 1/2 square block, I usually make a line 1/2" away from the 1st line and sew on both lines. I then cut between both line 1/4" and have the 1/2 square I want and a smaller square to use for making a small wallhanging or potholder. I plan to make a pot holder with my left over squares this time. Happy sewing everyone.

I am so glad that you gave us the "liberty" to make our own center square. I was already planning on being a contrarian and not add the pumpkin. HUMMMMM who knows what I can plan. I have a guild work day on Saturday, so I will have time to start my quilt-a-long.

Happy Birthday, Barbara. Your envelope went in the mail yesterday and should be in your mail box tomorrow. I trust you celebrated all day with your friends and your family. Nothing like a good day long party or maybe a week-end of it. I just tossed up a handful of confetti and blew one of those silly curly paper whistles in your honor. Whizzzzzzzz. Celebrate good times... come on!

Thank you all for the birthday wishes and the sweet candy squares... I have been opening packages on and off all day. (almost done) you ladies are so good to me. Besides the sweet candy that I truly love I also received lovely little extras. I received some Row by Row fabric, pattern, pin, charm and a license plate. Also a few of you gave me extra sets of squares, a flower to appliqué and a pattern for a cute pouch and postcard patterns. Everything is so nice. I feel very special today. The birthday cards are great and will take center stage on my closet door for all to see! I just like to see them...makes me feel so good.
Feeling blessed for all of your friendship!
Barb

Oh, fun project! What a cool way to make the leaves and pumpkin. I may start a table runner with pumpkins and leaves, once i get my stack of tops quilted. Thank you, Happylab. 
Barb, so glad you have enjoyed your birthday and got some nice little gifts. You deserve it, Queen Bee.
