All I have to do is wait 6 more months for a sweeeeeeeeet stack like Fraews!

Lee, love your idea but I really do not want to drool all the way to December by seeing what is coming!

Jaba, love your stockings!

Sewbizgirl, I only have two words for that shop that gypped you - boycott 'em
note: Joanne's tried to gyp me out of about $60 once due their pricing errors & advertising, still boycotting 'em
Love my LQS best!

Barb, glad to see your mom looking so good!


Here's the link to the 2.5" summer swap. All are welcome so please consider joining!

Barb, you are about 25/30 minutes north of Kazoo/Portage. Have fun and I understand that why you may not be able to get online. You might in that beautiful "dead zone" that is the Allegan Forrest. Enjoy your time away and if you have a minute stop at Dancing Dogs Quilt shop in Plainwell, just off 131. A LQS with good service and some interesting fabrics and books. Or....just wave as you go by.

?? I may be misunderstanding, but I figured it would be OK to show just a single candy. A lot of birthday gals have shown pictures of their whole lot! ( it's hard to read reflection in a text, but I am reading this as you don't want to see the candies).

I want to see the candies! Pictures are what makes this thread fun. There's no guarantee that anyone will get what anyone else got... the sets going out may not be all the same. Please do show pictures!

Fraew... What a cheery display of cards and candies! Bet you smile when you see it.

Jaba... I'm inspired to make a stocking or two with some candies now.

No, I don't want to see them before they arrive, but go ahead & suit yourself. I was just drooling over the pretty one that you posted, I hope I get that one, too. So many projects that it will look great in!!!
hugs,
dj

zozee, I've made a lot of stockings but I have never made them from 2 1/2" squares. I really like the way they turned out and will make more in the future.
djmat, you'll probaby just have to keep scrolling past the pics because we have always posted pictures on here whenever the birthday girls have gotten their candies. It's an individual choice on when they open them

More candy love in my mailbox today. Two envelopes, one from Barbarakibler and the other from moonrise. Thank you! I opened moonrise's because it was postmarked a day earlier. I'm opening one a day and going through them several times. So much fun. I'm going to post my 2 favorite candies from each sender because I can't pick just one favorite!!

Dj, just think... You'll be getting 1500 candies on your birthday. I don't think seeing a few now will spoil your "appetite"! Showing pictures is our way of opening gifts so everyone can feel the joy. And I know it does my heart good to see my card among others in a "real" way.
