Last year I participated in the 2.5" candy birthday swap - and loved playing with all the colors and patterns. Here is one of the quilts I made from them. I decided not to make it a true rectangle and had the cut edges. Went to my larger squares for the back and wanted them to tumble. Really enjoyed doing this. It was my therapy after a brain injury and it was all I could do to match the colors and make 16 patch blocks!
