    My candies from TravelingGramma have arrived! Thank you!
    Tee-Hee-Hee! I bet there are lots of folks in your shoes this weekend. A perfect celebration for the Labor Day and a fitting way to honor the dude who made cheeseburgers and margaritas famous for a generation or two. Enjoy.

    I promised a photo of my Criss Cross Stars progress. I think I will make 7 more blocks and then measure and decide if I need more. The color of the center square is a bit off but that is why I take most photos outside in natural light.

    Thinking I might do this again for a baby quilt. A good way to use up 2.5's that is quick and easy.

    Those are looking super cute! And on-point, too! I'm going to have to try this pattern!

    Love your starry quilt, WMUTeach.

    I think I will pass on the winter/ holiday exchange too. I have too much else going on, or I would swap. It's a fun swap.

    I don't know if it's too late, but I won't be able to do the holiday swap, either.

    Covid descended upon my household despite my attempts at keeping everyone safe. Blah. Stay safe!

    I have a new list of candies to share as today I was able to stumble out the house to check the mail. Much thanks for the delightful treasures yet to be unwrapped!
