Oh boy, I saw this Seven Sisters quilt on Pinterest! http://qisforquilter.com/2012/11/mor...-quilt-blocks/ It looks like a serious challenge, but wouldn't it be beautiful made with 2.5" candies?

Love this, NZQ. It’d be beautiful but likely requires more patience than I have! You make it and I’ll cheer you on.

Thank you for the Birthday Swap list, Barbara, I had been waiting for it and discovered that I missed the post. Duh! on my part.
Have a wonderful March 1st Sunday everyone. After church I will return to my sewing room and start quilting one of the three pieces I layered yesterday at my guild work day. One is a baby quilt that is a variation of the "Traffic Jam" by Pat Sloan. I post a photo when it is finished. An easy way to use birthday "treats".

I just pulled the blocks out of the UFO draw and it is so fun to see all the different fabrics! I need to finish it, and then start on a second!

Thank you Barbara for the list. I have 32 cards filled with candy. I put the birth date on the corner for each one. The remainder will be surprise extra for 8 lucky ladies!
Making mini Dresdens. One set will be used to extend a quilt and go on a top border. Another set will be as a row of flowers for a farm quilt I am doing with a local group.

thank you Sheri

Thanks for mentioning the Mini-Dresden Travelinggramma. I had forgotten all about that. What a terrific border for a quilt.
