    Started laying them out on the design wall. I have to pin, and this is as much as I can do with the pins I have.



    Started sewing them and decided that using the "grid" method would work great to keep the candies in the correct order.



    Then you fold the rows and sew the long seams.



    And the first section done. There will be 12 sections - 3 each quarter.



    I've got the second section done too - I think the sewing goes faster than the layout.
    I love seeing your process, can't wait to see the finished product.

    I've got candies for the first three Sept birthdays in the mail box waiting for pickup. I ran out of stamps so need to get to the PO before I can get the other two out. Didn't want to go on Saturday as it was the annual city festival and the PO is two blocks off Main Street where they set up the carnival riders. Gets kind of crazy to get around town for that weekend.
