    Last progress pic until I finish since it’ll just be more of the same. The upper left is sewn in rows except for some of the muslin quarter square triangles. The rest is is virtually the same configuration as my last progress pic. I decided to not overthink it and just go with it. This pattern is very forgiving so it’s a lot of fun building it on point. No need to fret about it. Am loving it. Here you go:

    Thanks, Barb, for sharing this last year.

    Thank you everyone for the birthday greetings and candies. I had a wonderful day yesterday.

    I found my baby book this summer while cleaning out closets and discovered something that I never knew before. I lived in Washington, D.C. when I was two/three years old... and the address was in the baby book! My BFF (Sarah) drove two hours to my house to drive me there so I could see it and try to remember something. (I don't drive in DC! I needed to breathe into a paper bag just being the passenger!)

    The first picture is me at age three in 1954 in front of that house. My deep love of horses started early!

    The second picture is my BFF (purple hair) and me (offically a blue-haired old lady) standing in front of the house that I lived in 66 years earlier. I didn't remember anything about it. It was a row of two-story townhouses. My unit had two bedrooms and one bathroom and only 880 square feet! Those must be tiny rooms!

    The third picture is the fabric! Even though my BFF doesn't quilt she spent hours in a quilt shop picking out ten yards of fabric for my birthday. Isn't it the most petable fabric? It gives me joy just looking at it. Everyone needs a Sarah in their life! She makes me feel so special.

    Unfortunately, the fourth picture shows that I'm still missing four candy envelopes so there won't be an on-time drawing for my birthday.

    Last envelopes for October in the mailbox. Should arrive in plenty of time. Let's give these two gals, perfect on time treats.

    Saw this pattern. By SewVeryEasy on Youtube. "Grace"
    Snowballs and nine-patch on diagonal.
    She uses strips but we all know it can easily be super scrappy - I think this will be on my to-do list too!

    Oooh, I like this TG. I have so many candy squares I could do this one several times over, I think.
