Moonrise- Your painted miniature rocks remind me of when I did that in art class.
I remember it being very relaxing and satisfying. Do you put a glossy coat over your painting?

Happylab-. I love your little sewing machine emoji. Too cute! I can't find anything like that. Is it on your phone? If so, what phone do you have?

Thank you for inspiring me with your beautiful top, mrshalibut!

Haven't checked in with y'all in a while so I've missed Kele's and Patrick's Mom's birthdays (and maybe others!) Hope you ladies had great birthdays and enjoyed all the candies you got.

Barb, just saw this:

And how much of the red fabric did you need?

My blocks finished at 6" and it was a 7x9 layout, I believe, so 42"x54"? No border yet... and probably won't add one. I had a bunch of the red and really didn't measure it as I used it, but I would think a yard or a bit less would be plenty to make all the red parts.

Since the new swap began, I've made just the two candy quilts I have shown. I need to make more! Still got three Ikea boxes full of candies.

Birthday wishes to Patrick's Mom and Kele. Enjoy the fun of opening all those packages and playing the those little fabric treats.
