Red and Honchey, I discovered what you did about our swapped candies today! I was starting a new quilt top and one of the things on the cutting list was 2.5" squares, cut on the diagonal into triangles. Wanting a wide variety, I went to my boxes of candies from swaps. I needed neutrals. Took out three stacks of them and then picked out all the ones that would work in this quilt. Before cutting them I needed to measure and can't tell you how many I had to drop into the garbage can because they were small, or not square. I really wish people would take better care in cutting for swaps! I hate the waste.
I made just over 100 little flying geese units today! That's what the split candy squares were for-- the side triangles in a goose.
