Someone in my office just had a premier jewelry party and I asked everyone at the party to give me the little baggies their jewelry came in when they got it. I also have one of the sales reps save the baggies for me too.

So for those of you who got my squares feel free to reuse my baggies I notice some recycled bags this swap way to be green swappers!

I sorted mine last night and laid out 9 patches on vinyl table cloth squares cut about 13 " square. Four 9P fit to a square. I'll be using them as leaders and enders soon. I sorta put together a 9P quilt in EQ to see what kind of setting I will do. Think I need some off white, tone on tone squares for some of the 9P's.

Just received my squares in the mail today. I can't wait to play with them all. I first have to finish my quilt top and my doll quilt for January.

EB meaning Eleanor Burns. Like in a 9P Sew pairs of each row keeping the threads connected as you sew the three pairs. Snip the threads or use a leader/ender. Then sew the third square onto each of the three rows keeping the threads connected. Then when you go to sew the rows together they are all connected and ready to sew. Is that clear?
