    Good evening Swappers.... I saw this link on another thread and copied it here thinking we just might like to put it to use or at least give it a try. A way to make hour glass blocks from 2.5's or really any other block. If you have used this method before, let us know the success or if it is a dud, let us know that too. Tee-Hee-Hee!

    Thank you so much!!! Now I can't say I never win anything.

    That tutorial is genius! Thanks for sharing. I would never in a million years think you could make them that way.

    Hourglass sounds interesting to add to something, but can’t imagine with the bias what mine would end up as.
    I must say, though, I have used a great deal of my candies this winter. And I’m happy to make quilts from them, but they are so addictive and I love having quilts with almost no repeats
