My Sept candies are going in the mail on my way to the airport in this morning. The two for Oregon should be quick.

It is a simple pattern that uses strip sets, but we could create our own using our 2.5 squares.

I am in the middle of a number of quilts started but not finished, so this little one will go on my "To Do" list.

This is a great, I think I will try this one this winter.

Hello Ladies

I haven't posted for awhile so I have a lot I wanna say......

Macy that is a beautiful quilt! Are those 2.5" squares??? Looks bigger from here. I love the way you have your color flowing.
I did a watercolor wallhanging before I was a quilter. I used 1.5" squares that my sisters(7 of them) mom and I cut up and traded fabrics then we were suppose to make a picture with the pretty colors of squares. My mom and I were the only ones to finish our wallhangings.

Irishmom...your daughters dorm looks great, I love window seats myself and your quilt turned out wonderful!

Queenbarbiej.....your checkerboard quilt...was that made with 2.5" squares? It looks great!

trish b... looks like you are having a great time getting all of your packages in. I have you receiving 21 not 22. ???

WMUTeach....please tell us more about "webbing" sounds like it could be very helpful with our little squares.

PamelaOry...Lottie is LottieParker

and finally ...Cheesehead all of your packages were in on time!!!

Looks like we need to do a drawing.

****One other note....Juststitchin let me know that she lives in the path of Hurricane Dorian. Please keep her in your good thoughts.
