Queenbarbiej......would really like to see your quilt you made with the birthday squares!!!!

Here it is. I'm ready to quilt it. It measures 87x87. I love the way it turned out. I still have birthday candies left. I'll figure out something to do with them.

QBJ, this is wonderful! I see a few of my squares in there! Hope you’ll post a pic after you quilt it. Thanks for sharing.

Happy birthday Rosemary Attaway.

Have a very happy birthday, Rosemary Attaway!

My quilt is almost done. I have maybe a couple of hours left for the quilting and put the binding on.

Happy Birthday Rosemary!

Birthday time! Happy Birthday Rosemary! You have waiting a long time to to day and all of your little sweet treats! Enjoy your day!

Queenbarbiej.........how did you make your quilt?

I did it on the diagonal. I started off making a bunch of four patches. I used setting triangles on the ends. I made sure that the triangles where on the straight of grain so that the won't stretch. I have a bad habit to pull on the fabric a little and my edges get distorted when on the bias.

Did you calculate how many 2.5's you used in your quilt? Just curious. I am considering being a copy cat and using your idea. It would be nice to use up some of my squares from 2019. I used nearly all from 2018 but I keep adding more to to my bag when I cut my scraps from finished projects in to 2.5's or at least 2.5 strips.

I used roughly 1616. I have enough left for 2 pillow fronts. Received a package yesterday.

Just to clarify how many squares I use, most of you ladies were extra generous with the birthday candies. I received more than 50 candies from several of you ladies. So I ended up with about 75 to 90 birthday candies left. I might just take the rest of the birthday candies and make a checkerboard quilt along with some of my own candies.

I got another card with candies Wednesday from Brenda. PattyJo: I love the little purse you sent me.I opened my cards the 19th loved them all!! Thanks everyone! Rosemary

Happy birthday Janice.

Happy birthday Janice. I hope you enjoyed celebrating your day with your family.

Happy belated birthday Janice, hope you had a wonderful birthday!
