Marybeth

I sent a PM. I'd like to join, but will need to check on how many.

I'm so excited! Four new CANDY swappers!! areinn, dottie, marytoddz, and goldendoq55!

Welcome to the "CandyBowl!"

I am going to check my stash as well, but would love to join. Will let you know if I have enough different fabrics, because I am on the road.

Marybeth, A year ago I had ZERO Batiks. (GASP) Today I have 20.....my daughter and I joined QB and started swaping in luvTooQuilt's 10.5" swap and I think I picked Batiks for every set I did. I just fell in love with them. Now I love them even more and have a really hard time cutting some pieces they're just so pretty!

I am excited to see you officially join up. lol We have lots of time still. :D

I'm really excited about this swap! I've received so many gorgeous 1.5" stamps that it made me want to work with bigger pieces. I've got a few 2.5" already cut. I think I'll take it slow & easy so I don't burn out.

Thanks for hosting this swap SheriR. :thumbup:

Oh my! THANKS for joining! I am using my 1.5" AND 2.5" stamp together and I'm really excited about getting s nice variety to mix in my "candy bowl!"

Whoo Hoo!!!!!! Look at all the swappers so far !!!!!

WE NEED LOTS AND LOTS OF CANDY !!! ok well I do.. lol.. :D

I have 12 sets. No twists. They can be mailed at any time. I just need an address. I can't wait to see what fabric shows up here. It's such fun to see what fabrics other quilters have chosen. Thanks for hosting! :)

Just with cutting a little bit each night this past week.........I have 200 2 1/2" squares cut already-- that equals 4 finished cotton candy's !!...............ok they are not completely done because they are not complete sets:D:D:D. But I think it will go fast. And on weekends I should be able to do triple that...........right ????:p

ill be using my Go, so I should get these done and on their way pretty soon.. Im still pulling out and organizing the scraps ill be using for the candy bags.. This weekend has been a 'draggin my butt' kind of weekend.. Sheesh !!! I need to light a fire under my buns to get going !!!!

I got our first set of "cotton candy" with a "sprinkle of Batiks" from Fraew. It all fit so nicely in her envelope. Thank you, Fraew!!

Mine is on it's way... with maybe a few surprises... well at least for me! I posted the whole frantic story on the Diamond thread... but I am excited about the swap. my husband does not understand me, I told him I was in the candy swap, he wanted some of the candy! being the meanie that I am I told him I don't share this kind of candy! I am keeping him in suspense for a little while before I share the whole story!

I'm watching for yours Mary. LoL@hubby wanting your candy! Give him a freyed piece:D

25 down, 25 to go! :thumbup:

Mine is making it's way to Sheri's house right now.

My candy is already to be mailed....Hopefully I will get to the post office on Tuesday :)

Oh I have the best "Candy" swappers!!!!

You are too funny !!!!!!!!!

I got cutting and just couldn't stop myself. So want to submit 14 candy bags if that is ok. This is so addictive!

I'm done !!! :thumbup: Everything is in its baggie and all the baggies are in a larger one. Packaged and ready to send.............just have to get to the post office. Maybe thursday. ............................Now the lllllooooooooooonnnnnnnnnggg wait until all my candy comes back to me;)

Well if we all get them to her sooner we can beg her to get them mailed back sooner... *** HINT HINT HINT ***


I was cutting batiks last night with my GO.. And wouldnt you know it the dang die is defective.. Grrrrrr....
THEN, as a pain as it was I cut out 16 batik sets instead of the MAX 5 !!!! Ugh.. I should of went to bed...

Tomorrow Ill try and get the new die....

Happy Quilting..

luvTooQuilt..........maybe - hopefully - there will be another batik swap and you will be all set !!!!!!!!

I wanted to do a just batik swap but worried not so many could do that type of swap. Sooooo we get our "Batil Twist". Luv, you can always send batiks as your main AND your twist :D

I just got back from the post office and they are on their way. The gal said you should have them by Thursday. Now I just need to be patient until the time to find them in my mail box.

I was going to take my time cutting and send them in the last week. Guess I'd better put a fire under it! :thumbup:

My cotton candy and peppermint twists went into the mail this morning !!!! Hope they arrive safetly. Sheri I will pm you the tracking #. Good luck everyone on your cutting. I did too many at once and now have a twing under my right shoulder blade. I think I will go out on the kayak and try and to stretch it out (=
Now the wait begins .........................:p
