    I bought mine from a friend, but it is available here as well:

    I used several of them in this quilt to border the center squares of each block:

    There are many different kinds of recipes for Monkey Bread. The one I like is similar to cinnamon rolls, but made with Pillsbury buttermilk biscuits, gooey caramel, raisins and nuts. I know people also make garlic monkey bread, cheesy monkey bread and even pizza monkey bread. I am sure there are others also, but I like the sweet kind.

    This is absolutely stunning! I like the back just as much as the front & believe me, I love that front! Well done indeed!

    Oh this is just too funny! It sure would encourage me to make a very large quilt each year!

    Ann, I love your spirit. Keep smiling & making us smile with you.

    half size would lmake a long table runner. Go ahead and make half the blocks, then you can leave one off if too long. Or if daughters (plural) are asking for table runners, make as clues tell you and divide finished blocks into 2 runners.

    Default Step one

    I just finished them! Not sure how I ended up with 64 units, guess I'm meant to make a larger project. Not exactly scrappy, but I had white and black fat quarters I've been wanting to use.
