I finished cutting my 50 fabrics yesterday. Even using the AccuQuilt it took me most of the day!! But now I have all these lovely accurately cut candies for this next year. Next part of the project is to put them into stacks and wrap them for mailing. Then I'm done and done!!

That what happens with these sweet candy squares. I was hooked after my first project. Now I look at every quilt thinking....can I make that with my candy???

MizMelly: don't feel bad...even with my cutter it took a good chunk of the day. But it was fun wondering if what I was cutting would be enjoyed or swapped again.

I can't wait to start mailing mine out! I have to go to the store and buy some b'day cards, though. They should sell quilty type ones in fabric stores

Well have sent Barb my request to participate once again for this year. It was so fun sending out the packages and cards not to mention the fun in receiving all the wonderful candy and cards on my Birthday.

I am in for another year. This will be year 4 for me. This swap is so much fun and you truly do feel special your birthday month when all the squishes begin arriving.

Thank you Barb for all you do.
