Just in from AZ, my crown fell out, got spider bitten 4 times at the hotel, found some really cool license plates & wonderful fabric on the trip (all purchases never left the trunk until we got home)!
Will mail on Tuesday to you lovely June babies!
hugs,
dj

Sounds like your trip will be one that you will remember for a long while DJ ! Be sure to mark that hotel off your list and if they have reviews on their website you should post....just sayin'
Received b-day candies yesterday from mrshalibut so I've checked off everyone on the list. Thank you again ladies

Lovely cards Gaijin and Juanitabean! I hopeyou had happy birthdays and enjoy your 'loot'.

Sorry if I miss saying 'Happy B-Day' to some of you. Now that I'm out of the group I don't get the birthday reminders and just have to catch them when I come to the thread to see how y'all are doing! I miss you but don't miss getting candies this year... I'm trying to use what I have. Yesterday I finished up cutting my scraps from the last couple of months of projects, and made another tall pile of candy squares! But here are some I used up:

These 9 patches are cute as a button and will go into a Patches of Life quilt. Recognize any squares? There are 71 9 patches in these stacks and it hardly made a dent!

And here are some more I've used. These are some 12" blocks that will go into scrappy Christmas lap quilts for the hospital at Christmas time:

I feel like I need to make about 4 scrap quilts for every regular quilt I make from yardage....

I'm sending a pic of what I've made so far. I was going to do the one with a 9x9 square and white sashing, but I made 7x7 and now I kind of like it just all together.[ATTACH=CONFIG]573764[/ATTACH]

Love it!!! The one with white sashing is beautiful too, but this is similar to my "grand plan."

Just finished quilt from my Birthday candies. I made Arkansas Cross Road top, know need to quilt it. I really like the way it turned out. Have always wanted to do this Quilt but not had that many 2.5 sqs.

Thank you Moonrise for sharing you idea. if you look I hope you can find your blocks. The first 5 and last 2 candies I received will be in another quilt I started. Thank you all for my candies. Juanita
