Linda asked me to show some of the quilts I had made with 2.5" candy squares... from previous swaps and also cutting up my scraps. Hope this inspires us to use our candies! There are some wonderful free patterns for these size squares at QuiltedTwins.com. They have a great free patterns page. Several of mine were from their patterns.
The last one, the square triple Irish Chain, is my granddaughter's, so I made it with all juvenille, I-spy type fabrics. Kind of a different way to make an I Spy quilt!

NZQuilter, I know you mostly sew for your kiddos. If you like, I can send 50 juvenille prints for your birthday. These were the kind I used in the Irish Chain for my GD. She loves all the little 'pictures'.
If anyone else wants juvenille prints, I've got 'em! Just speak up in advance of your birthday!

I'm going to sit on the fence a bit - if there is enough interest that it fills up then I'm Ok with that, but if not then I'll join in again. I do enjoy it, but want to give others a chance if they are hoping to join. However I think the last two years have not been full so we'll see.
Even if I don't join, I'll hang around as I plan on trying to do the quilt of the month using the candies I've already got. I'll share that progress.
