Good morning Ladies, We had a beautiful day here yesterday, Cleaned up the back patio. I got out my new patio furniture out, still need to buy cushions. Going to rain today, so I will be puttering around in my sewing room.
I'm loving all the pictures of the projects using the candy squares, keep them coming. There are some really beautiful quilts being made. I'm always in awe of the talent in this group.
I have three Pair of pants to hem, just a little something that irritates me. Just because I sew doesn't mean I want to hem your pants. It's family so what am I to do? Enough venting for the day.
Many wishes for a great day to all

Glad you had a beautiful day yesterday. I am in SW Minnesota and we did NOT have a beautiful day yesterday. We had a blizzard with 18" of snow! On April 14th! It feels like we have had winter forever this year!

I remember doing this swap several years ago, glad to see it keeps active. If this is still going for 2019, I think I'm going to do it again. I loved it and received so many beautiful squares. I have been away for a year or two from many swaps, but you know, I miss them. Till next year ladies, enjoying you guys post and pics. Mary

What a sloppy morning! Rain and freezing rain. Good day to quilt later. This is my first swap and I keep changing my mind about what I am going to do with them.

LOL...I did that as well. A friend called it an "archaeological" find, a treasure trove of fabrics I'd forgotten about.
Also, I finally finished the top I'd been working on for years. It's a Fading Charms pattern made up of 788 squares from my stash, from candy square swaps including the birthday squares swaps for the last few years and fabric from friends and from some old turkey reds as the background fabric. Now I've got to decide how to quilt it.

Great quilt Janice. I am still trying to finish up my AK Crossroads from the quilt along that was lead over two years ago on here. Guess that also makes it a UFO.
Haven't had much free time for anything lately. My work has just been crazy with many long days and piles to high to even take a small break to play on the internet. However, the project is winding down and my piles are shrinking so hopefully i a month, or two, my life will return to normal.
