WMUteach I really like the fussy cut on the arrow square. Great finish to yours. I love the purple one I did. The August birthday candies will go in the mail today.

Don't let all of those little squares trick you into thinking it is too difficult. It is unbelievably easy to make. And it made a serious dent in my stash of little squares.

Hi everyone....

I have been very busy in my crafting room. Found lots of things I haven't seen in months. Still have a lot to do but pretty much I know what Box everything is in. (okay maybe ).

Yesterday was my last day at my job at the resale store. Mixed feelings on that. I have a new job with the local school district that will start up in a few weeks as a sub for the clerical pool. This will be minutes from my house not 45 minutes. So that will be a time saver, gas saver and money saver. (it was a resale store...hard not to buy things...you know what I'm saying!).

Today quilting with my mom....tomorrow my first day off.....who knows maybe I will ......work in my craft room, sew, garden, go to the pool oh the possibilities! I still do have my bookkeeping job.... but that is very flexible and do most of that from home.

have a nice day

Barb

GramE.... found what I was looking for to send you (kinda started me to opening all these boxes) so you prize will be sent off today!

The BoomSwap hasn’t started yet and i’m Binding 3 quilts (amazing how many quilt tops I discovered). Thank you again for the gift.
