I thought you all might like to see the quilt top I put together today, since it's all 5" squares. These are squares from my scrap drawers, where I keep the squares I have cut from my scraps. I had so many and was feeling guilty for never using them. They are not my color swap squares, but ones I had before. I'm calling this 'Giant Granny Square" because it's the same idea as the small grannys, only with 5" charm squares. It made a 62" square throw top. I'll be donating it once it's quilted.
Don't you think the color swap squares would make a pretty one?

Hi All!
Thanks for all the kind words. I was so thankful for the opportunity to purge the gray from my stash. What is one man's treasure is....well, whatever. I apologize for putting Red on the spot like that. She's a tough cookie...she could handle it!
I've been busy hosting over at the February Secret Pal. I have such a new appreciation for anyone who is a hostess. It is an unbelievable opportunity! Verna2197 is feeling better and will, most likely, be setting up the March Secret Pal, by the end of the week. That is another sweet group of people. Some of you already participate. Check it out! (A little cross-advertising)
