sewbiz your finished quilt is beautiful, thank you for showing it for us.

sewbiz - that is very pretty!
Got one more envelope in the mail today - Rosemary Attaway. I'm waiting on two more - hope they show up on Monday! |
So my birthday is Tuesday, but I will be in Chicago with my daughter to celebrate. Since it is my anniversary today, Mother's day tomorrow and my birthday on Tuesday ... I decided to open my cards today! So happy I chose today -- I took my time (I think it was about 4 hours!) opening the cards, sorting the fabrics, and taking notes for my feedback. So so many pretty candies...very few duplicates. While I was opening I received a package of chocolate covered strawberries from my daughters - yum!
For my initial sorting I did: 1) a pile of light to dark blue for the sky of Jen Kingswell My Small World Quilt. I still need to get pattern, but the candies have given me incentive. I also put aside some of the quirky or animal candies for this quilt. 2) a pile of 1930 fabrics. I so want to do a 1930s quilt and I have been accumulating fabric and I think variety is a must in a 1930s quilt, so this is much needed! 3) a huge pile of batiks -- love the colors! 4) a pile of the brights -- again, love the colors! 5) a pile of the "Kaffe" like prints! 6) a pile of polka dots and fun! 7) a pile of B&W, White, or grey blend -- I've also been accumulating B/W/G fabrics for a fun project. 8) and a huge pile of other, which might get further allocated or be a great variety mixture. Thank you, thank you!! So here is my updated list - I have received from everyone but two people.

Hi Birthday Swappers!
Just popping in to say hello and show you a finished quilt. It's the quilt from Barb's Mystery QAL about a year or so ago. Finally got it quilted! It was a fun QAL. Thank you Barb for helping me use some of my candy squares. |
