Very pretty block, Givio. It looks very 'watercolor'-y. Happy Birthday and may all your candy treats be received!

I rearranged my sewing room in August and I am still constantly hunting for things that I knew were on the Pool Table. But since we sold the pool table in August, where did all the stuff go that was piled on top of it?!?!?!?

I had a fun birthday. Thanks for all your well-wishes! My sister made me cupcakes, my brother told me I was pretty, and my husband kissed me. There is nothing so lovely as a dear family. If you have one, be thankful this Thanksgiving! If you don't, be thankful for friends. :-) There are always lots of blessings to count. To you all, Have a good holiday!

Here's another '4patch' block to show you--

WMUTeach 11-21-2018 02:01 PM

Aborning, Now I have a missing bag of 19 finished quilt squares for a baby quilt. Grrrrrrr and double grrrrrrrr. I can mentally trace it to about November 1 but after that.....lost. The clock is ticking on the due date for this little on, so I guess a new quilt is in order. I hope you find what was resting on your now absent pool table. We are both in a fix! :)

happylab 11-21-2018 03:33 PM

Happy Happy Birthday Givio. Sounds like you had a great day.

I think most of us have misplaced something we were working on at one time or another. I have 5 or 6 blocks I can't locate presently for my birthday candies. I certainly have plenty of candies to make more, but I'd rather use the ones I've already sewn...
Here's another square of 4 blocks--

Armylady2012 11-23-2018 07:00 AM

I forgot to post that I mailed the December Birthday candies out on the 21st of November 2018 expected delivery is Saturday 24 November 2018.

barbarakibler23 11-24-2018 07:09 PM

Givio.....love your squares that you are making with your candies. What are your plans with the squares? how many do you plan to make?

Looking forward to seeing a finished product.

Took my dog Sophie to the vet's yesterday. They did X-rays and an ultrasound and found that she has a tumor in her abdomen that is taking all the space and crowding her intestines and stomach. She is 13 years old and don't feel that she would make it through surgery. they told us to take her home and enjoy her.

The hardest part is deciding when the right time to let her go is. Don't want her to suffer but don't want to let her go too soon.

Say a prayer of peace for us ...
Thanks Barb

MizMelly 11-25-2018 06:04 AM

So sorry to hear, Barb. I've been there. More than once. All I can say is that you'll know when it's time.

Oh, Barb. That is sad news. We had to make that same choice several years ago for our sweet Charlie. He was 13 when we let him go. Praying you may have peace.

sunrise450 11-25-2018 11:27 AM

Lstew2212, Happy Bithday! I you enjoy yourself on your special day.

Lstew2212 11-26-2018 03:30 AM

Thank you ladies for all the Birthday wishes and the birthday candies.

I went home to Georgia for Thanksgiving and I opened all my cards while there. My family thought all my cards and this swap were great and now want quilts made from all my candies.

I had a lovely visit with my family, laughed and cried alot as this was the first holiday without my dad. He loved having all the family together. Thanksgiving and Christmas were his favorite.

My family gave me a surprise birthday party, Harry Potter Themed, while I was there. My neices and nephew were dresses in their Hogwarts robes. The floating candles were hung as well as the keys from the first Movie. I am a big Harry Potter Fan. I even got Harry Potter themed gifts. My sister baked me a birthday cake just like the one Hagrid gave harry the first time they met. It was really cool. I have the best family.

While we were gone, my 2 1/2 year old fur baby started showing blood in her urine. We have to go to the vet this morning. Pray that all is ok and it is just a minor infection.

Thanks again for the candies and wishes for my birthday, you ladies are the best.

Lstew2212 11-26-2018 03:38 AM

barbarakibler23,
Praying for you and your fur baby. They are a big part of our families. Enjoy the time remaining with her. We had to put down our sweet Niketa last year and I cried for days. {{{{{{hugs}}}}}}

Barbara, I'm sorry to hear about your Sophie. That is so hard. It's the worst thing about having pets but the joy they give us outweighs it. Love on her and you'll know when it's time.

oldcatlady 11-26-2018 05:43 PM

Mailing two December cards today. Can you believe I've run out of the right size of cards!!!!! I haven't bought supplies for this swap in two years.... lol��

Late happy Candy day to all. I live in crazy town right now so sorry I haven't kept up. Prayers for sick fur babies and HUGS to all. <3

sunrise450 11-27-2018 07:34 AM

Birthday cards are in the mail. I hope you ladies enjoy your candies!

Janice McC 11-27-2018 07:37 AM

Good morning. Birthday candies for OldCatLady and MizMelly are in today's mail. Be on the lookout for them. Thanks.

jaba 11-27-2018 09:16 AM

Mine are ready to go and will make a trip to the PO in the next couple of days.

travelinggramma 11-27-2018 03:37 PM

Fur Babies are family. And it is so hard to tell them what is happening, and hard to accept that we have to let go. Prayers for you.
Candies being mailed tomorrow.

Texastam 11-28-2018 04:46 AM

My birthday candies went in the mail yesterday. Enjoy your candies birthday babes!!!

Barb-so sorry about your doggie. It is the worst when you lose a pet.
