Miquilt, the candies I sent were just returned to me marked "return to sender, attempted - not known, unable to forward." The address is exactly the same as the one Barb sent. I guess this is just a goof since everyone else got the same address. I'll resend tomorrow. I'm sorry they will be a few days late.

All of April Candies are in the mail over the weekend.

miquilt, I sent yours by priority mail. It should be there on Wednesday.

Janice, I have made The fading squares twice and would honestly do it again but sadly I have used so many of may 2.5 squares that I do not have a good variety any more. How sad. :( :D September is coming and my choices will increase again! I do cut 2.5's from scraps that just happen with quilting but not enough to make this stunner. Your red shows up as brown which is pretty nice too. I used a mottled royal blue on one and black on another. 788 down and thousands more to go, right?

Janice McC, I just love 'turkey red'! I suppose the colors always look different in person than on a monitor, as it seems a little brownish on my monitor too. The quilts always look better in person. With the last block swap I did on QB, I was so pleased with the pictures of the blocks that were posted, but in person, wow, they were really nice. :-)

barbarakibler23 04-16-2018 05:17 PM

Janice....love your quilt! I hope some of my candy squares can be found in your quilt! What are your plans with your quilt? What size does this make? queen? Always looking for a candy pattern that looks nice!

So I have been busy finishing up a quilt that I started at the beginning of February! Finally is finished. I thought this one was a hard one. Had to do a "Y" seam. :shock: yep gonna try and stay away from that for awhile!
Not a single candy square here:

This past weekend I made this baby quilt: Disappearing 9 patch. Really like this pattern. I made it before and will continue to make this. I have no idea why they are sideways!

Not a single candy square here! :shock:

Hello ladies....

You will find in your PM box a message from me with May birthday addresses. I am going to Paducah tomorrow for a quilt show and won't be back until Sunday April 22. Please notice a few things about the May girls.

Jaba is on May 1st...so getting hers out sooner than later is better.

Also Gaijin's birthday is on May 23rd. She is going to be gone on her birthday please try and get hers out early also. Consider her birthday May 10th. for delivery. However you will not be considered late if you wait until the end of the month. Only for Gaijin. Sorry Gaijin I kinda messed up your dates. Hopefully everyone will delight you with your packages early:thumbup:.

And JuanitaBean well didn't want to leave her out....she just wants to do a happy dance every time she receives a package!

I will try and check in during the week. Have a great week.

Barb

JuanitaBean 04-19-2018 04:40 PM

I received candies from Jennr8r today you are fast Thanks

barbarakibler23 04-20-2018 04:29 AM

Hello ladies. Hope al is well I’m having a great time at the Paducah quilt show. I became a member of the AQS (AQS ).
Bought a pattern of a quilt that uses our sweet candy squares

givio 04-20-2018 05:43 AM

Does your pattern have a picture on the front? Please show us a picture of the pattern?

WMUTeach 04-20-2018 05:44 AM

Oh, oh, oh share when you get home! New ideas are always welcome.
Have a grand time!

MizMelly 04-20-2018 05:49 AM

Oooh! I'm SO envious! I was lucky to attend the Houston quilt show way back in 2002 and I STILL have projects and ideas that haven't been created yet from that show! Paducah has always been a possibility, maybe one of these years. Enjoy Barb and definitely share when you return!

I'm also mailing my May candies today!

IceLeopard 04-20-2018 10:47 AM

May candies were just put in the mailbox. :)

jaba 04-20-2018 05:09 PM

Barb I'm so envious of you being there, I was a week early! Next year I'm going to plan on it for sure!!
After upgrading my internet speed I lost the internet. Anyway, today I'm finally back on line. The woes of living in a rural area....just "sucks" sometimes!!
Today in the mail....b-day cards....haven't opened them and will wait until May 1st. Thank you ladies very much

May candies are in the mail as of yesterday. I am still packaging birthday cards, I should be able to finish today. Then I will be set up for the year. I think that my DH will be happy to get our kitchen table back.
I received card and candies from Trish yesterday. Thanks Trish, I will post an updated list tomorrow.
You all have a great day!
