    I found this online. It is made with 1.5" squares, but it could be made with 2.5" squares instead. I really like it.

    I ordered my Go die for cutting 2.5 squares.... getting closer to deciding to join you all. I hope I will have the time to join, I'm tired of my fabrics, I'd like some new ones.

    Sherri, I mailed my package today. I got on a role cutting and cut way to many so I sent 12 packages instead of 10. Hope that is ok.

    Sorry about this post. I thought I posted a picture with it. Now I can't get the picture to post. Oh well. Sorry about that.

    @ Yankeegirl, Glad to have you back! I’d love to see a picture of your bed quilt. LOVE pictures here, and links and hints, and and and ANYTHING 2.5” candy!!!

    @ goldbeacher, OOOO I received Candy from NV!!! Thanks! I’ll post a list tomorrow of everyone I’ve received from. You are all making this swap so fun and easy for me. I appreciate it!

    @ charlotte37830, I’ve converted patterns to fit the size I need often! And isn’t it irritating when links don’t post. Mine only work half the time. Hope we get to see your fun idea.

    @cindynvb, I’m jealous of your GO die!!! Heck, I’m jealous of all y’alls cutter. I keep thinking I’ll get one then I think how much fabric I could buy for the price. Hubby did mention it for my birthday though….

    @Jannie, you know I’ll be watching for your package. I LOVE mail. Hubby came in today with an arm load. Lucky for him y’alls packages of candy don’t weigh much!!

    Lot's of "Candy" on the move!!! And I LOVE it!

    I finally got to the P.O., and my package should be delivered on Monday.. I can see a happy dance in my near future.. Usually, I procrastinate, and make deadlines, but getting it out early is awesome..
    I'm also thrilled to be swapping with a great bunch of people..

    Sheri, before you buy a die cutter you should read Ebony Love's book. She has so much good info in it. I wish I had read it before I bought mine. I might have bought the big shot pro. It will cut more layers and use dies from other companies. But I do use the Go a lot.
