    Juanita Bean...I really like this idea of making a square from each person. Like a friendship quilt. I think I will do that this year with mine!!!
    thanks for the great idea.

    I did a "5 at 5" with the squares before.....would show case 25 squares from each person.

    How will you put their name on it??

I'm thinking if I open them as I get them I will make a block from each person and put their name on it to make a quilt 30 Blocks will make a quilt 12" size Blocks 5x6=60x72 or 35 Blocks 5x7=60x84

    received card and candies from trish b yesterday. Thank you so much!
    I now have all birthday candies from everyone except WMUTeach.
    I mailed Jaba's birthday candies either the 26th or 27th. Oops! Just checked and it was picked up by our mail lady on 4/25.
    I will mail the rest by tomorrow.

    Hi Everyone, I've been less than healthy for a couple weeks but the sun is shining on me now.
    I mailed candies to JABA today. Hope they make a fast trip from Oregon to Wyoming. Have a great week.

    Thanks I just bookmarked a new quilt choice! I can hardly wait. In two weeks I will be working a three day week for about 7 weeks. Yeah! That gives me two days per week to quilt! Watch out world the big ol'e bag of 2.5 inch squares will be getting smaller and smaller. Then comes my birthday month and it will fill up again. But I can make a lot of 9 patches between now and July...right?
