Well... you do get to "know" the candies better that way. Ive done it both ways and it's fun either way.

Nice loot, Fraew. We'll still be back in a few days to wish you a happy birthday.

So what are your plans for that candy?

Those stockings are adorable!!!!

Probably the only difference is our cuff will have a name on it (if they choose to). Those look great. I do love the look our sweet candy squares as a stocking! Looking forward to a lot of Christmas stockings.

Hope I am not going to slow with the QAL. I am so busy right now so it's gonna have to be slow and steady.
Jaba...I believe I see some of the squares I sent you for your birthday

Barb, I want to take your stockings to Florida with me so finished them today. I will keep track and see if you make your cuff different than what I did. Hope you don't mind, but love the idea of using 2 1/2" squares and wanted you to know I really made them, so here they are....l Iove 'em!! hope my son, daughter in law and new grand daughter will like them too....[ATTACH=CONFIG]554589[/ATTACH]

Hey Ladies...I will be going out of town Monday-Friday this week. I will have internet but not sure if I am going to be able to get online. My hubby and I are going camping westside of Michigan. I am so looking forward to this trip, we are looking for a campground that we can leave our camper there all summer. Then use it like a cabin. It is only 2 hours from my house. My sister from Florida is coming up and taking care of my mom so we could get away. I have been on vacation for the last week which made it easier to be with my mom.

Hey WMUTeach.... I think I should be pretty close to you. We will be in Hopkins MI.

So just in case I don't get online on July 28th Happy Birthday to our birthday twins. (of course they have a different mother and father just like the rest of us) but they do share a birthday .

Happy Birthday Onaemtnest and Fraew. I hope you ladies have a great day and enjoy all those sweet little candies.

Barb
