I just wanted to check in with my most recent birthday CANDY! Thank you sooo much Gannyrosie, Jarenie, and KarenG. This is a lot of fun and it's not real bad to be the Birthday Princess for sooo long. I'm just missing two candy sets...no one.

I lied, dad just brought in the mail. One more set from: Pjjandme!!!! Thank you!!!!

March birthdays

Jarenie is still waiting on 3 (she might have them ...she has not been on in awhile)
Mrshailibut is waiting on 1
BJSmith57 is waiting on 1
mrs.sherbert is waiting on 2

I believe I have heard from these people and they should be on their way..... looking forward to mark my sheet (I have one for each of you) complete!!!!!

Barb

also we have 2 birthdays in April (2&9) and then we don't have one until mid May. Please take this time to get your packages ready to mail. I will send out addresses on April 20th (Easter) Also please keep coming back to the thread during the month I plan on posting some ideas to use your sweet little candy squares.

feel free to post your own ideas on here and also any projects that you are working on.


Barb

As of today, I have received candies from everyone. Thank you all. Lots of square everywhere.
Here is a baby quilt I made with last year Birthday Candies and SheriR's Swap. It used up all my pinks. Baby girl is due May, and I am not so motivated to quilt it...

Yup, those are the ones. I have no pattern, just figured out the math. For the alternate "X" blocks you need 4 squares of background fabric, each 4.5" square. For the points I used more 2.5" squares. I laid them in the proper corners of the background fabric and sewed diagonally across them. You can figure it out by looking at a picture.

Here is an actual pattern if you'd rather use one:

Ok, as promised I have pictures of my goodies received today. These first two photos are beautiful squares from Barb. The first photo shows my birthday squares, and the second one shows my two contest prizes. See why you need to be playing these contests? Thanks so much Barb! Love all of these.
