How are we coming on the squishies?

The November 2nd In My Hands Deadline is creeping up on us, ladies!

Mine are all cut out and ready to be put into baggies. I was at Joann's yesterday and they had fq's for $0.75! I came "this" close to buying more for the next swap, but decided against it. I want to see what we get first, and then buy different stuff going forward. (nods sagely....)....okay, okay, it was really because I didn't have the time to pick through things for a spy quilt. And I also figured lots of folks can get stuff from there, so I'll try to be the "different" one. (and Lord knows, I certainly qualify as "different" :D :D :D)

Happy cutting folks!

Red, I sent my package and my receipt shows that you should have received my pkg. on the 19th. Do you have it yet?
I am getting concerned.

Would fabric with snowmen, gloves & mittens, hearts, and pumpkins be allowed?

I think that would be fine :)

Mine and my Mom's are cut. Will be in the mail in the next fat or so.

We're off to a good recipient received start!~

So far I have squishies from:
Hav4boys
Travelinggramma
Wannabe
Sunrise
Bkay
Pinkflowers
MacyBaby
Moonrise
PamelaOry
Sewbiz
and Teresa in OR....I'm thinking that might be Sleepy?

Yes, that's me! I didn't get my screen name on the outside of the package, but it should be in each of my baggies.

I’m starting to get excited...now I need to decide how I want to make my ispy quilt. I was whining about not having any grand kids to sew one for then realized my husband was having a blast “I-Spying” while helping me pick out fabrics, so I think I’m going to make him one. Any pattern ideas?

One of my favorites is this one:

I don't make it like with a nine patch, though. I use strip piecing for the sashing with the cornerstone and sash them the the normal way. I've made them both ways, and this was easier for me.

My other favorite is happy blocks. I can't find a good photo online, but it's basically a square in a square with each block sashed in a different bright color.

Thanks bkay, these are great ideas! The happy block idea has me intrigued.
