    Default 2.5 Day

    Well, swappers, it is the 25th of September and officially 2.5 day. Here is what I am working on that makes use of 2.5" squares. Blocks are finished and some sashing attached. The other sashing strips are cut and I have fingers crossed that I can finish this by October's 2.5 day. Mostly I need to learn to be more comfortable with on-point setting, so here I go.

    Pop on and share a photo of what you've been working on that uses our collections of little squares. Looking forward to your projects.

    I'm so glad that Barb and Jenn got their candies! I have them all ready to send with the cards, so that when we get the announcement, I can package them up and get them out right away ;-) I also know that I don't have duplicate candies. Now the waiting begins for the birthdays! Hugs on 2.5 day!

    For 2.5 Day I can share the quilt I entered into the State Fair of Virginia. I went to see all the quilts today and was pleased that my Doll Quilt won a first place ribbon!
