Here's my little piles of goodies. I made extra piles in case of: A) It was late and I can't count, B) we get some last minute sign-ups, or C) I want some for myself, or....D) I throw in extras in each envelope so I know everyone gets a minimum of 30.

It would be Great to get the complete list so I could address all the envelopes, too....((hint)).

LOL

My mailing was supposed to go out today, but with 14" of snow....um....yeah....that's not happening until tomorrow. :D

Did you mean to write that everyone gets a minimum of 50?

I can't remember if I mentioned this on this thread or on last year's thread. This is the mystery quilt with 2.5 squares from 2017/2018 thread .... again. I obviously had/have an abundance of orange squares and did my best to dig into the stash of little orange treats. Not quilted yet but it will be put into the UFO pile and I will finish it soon. :o
Getting the squares on point this time was much easier!!

I mailed Juststitchin's candies on Saturday.

I have all my candies sealed in their envelopes with postage and return address already on, just need addresses and off they go. I made a total of 40, just in case. :)

I mailed my package top Juststitchin on Thursday. It was 70cents. I am not quite done yet cutting all my candies and I guess that is ok, since I do not know how to post pictures on here.

I hope all of us quilters in Minnesota, South Dakota, North Dakota, Iowa, Nebraska, Wisconsin, Michigan survive all the record cold and snow we have been getting in February. At this point, I am not happy about making History! I am very sick with the challenge of getting to work and getting back home from work, without going in the ditch. I have done that once this winter and that is enough. A couple times this month already I have stayed at work for a couple days at a time. I am the Hotel Manager at a Casino and they let the employees stay when the weather is so bad. I was there from Saturday morning until I just came home a little while ago. I couldn't have come home if I wanted to, because the roads were closed with huge drifts.

Juststitchin - Congratulations on being our very first birthday babe for this year's swap!!

Your candies were mailed out today. No peeking 'till your birthday!! :D

Beautiful quilt, WMUTeach. I love the ideas you are sharing!

I was finally able to get caught up on reading the posts on this thread...I didn't realize I got so behind already! Lots of great photos, questions and discussions here. We birthday gals are an awesome bunch!!

Bunch of nuts, maybe, but I'm excited to start a new year with all of you...
newbies and knowbies alike. :D

I've had my candies all cut, stacked and bagged for almost two weeks. I think I ended up 39 or 40 sets, as it never hurts to have extra!

Barb, please enter me into the contest.

I finally finished mine. Just need to put some in envelopes, stamp them and get return address labels printed. I am sad, I had to toss close to 1000 return address labels with my old address!
I also mailed out the first one today!!
