Normally I'm a big procrastinator, but in two nights (at least a solid 12 hours...) I got all the fabric pressed (some were full yards), and cut into 163 squares. (The three extras were me cutting with the "photographer's eye" where you don't often center your object. I'm still learning, but everything is square, and fussy cut where needed). Looking forward to the next sign up

I'm cutting mine this weekend, on the ironing board now. October and November are going to be CRAZY at work so I want them and anything handmade for the next few months of secret pals done and ready to go out the door when signups arrive!

I finished this top last week and started another with gray sashing. So fun deciding where to put each square.

I would love to see what everyone is doing with theirs.

Kele I love this, it's one of the settings I was looking to do for mine. Is that a one inch around the squares? I really like the thin border round each set. As soon as I decide on my setting, I'll get to sewing.

Will the next swap be like this one, with 10 different squares per baggie? Thanks!

Yes, 1 inch finished. The top is 41 inches by 51 inches. Would love to see a photo of what you make.

I don't have a picture of the toddler size I made yet, it is out at the quilter. It's a 5" tumbler with a purple tumbler border around the edges.

I made a king size for myself that stays on my bed part of the time and is available for blanket fort making and epic I spy games (there are over 550 squares, all different!) It took me 8 years to collect and I have ones now I wish were in there!
