Day 2-Cutting the squares

So lastnight was DAY 2 working on Channing's quilt. Randee picked my up and before heading out to the lake we stopped at the quilt store and bought some RED THREAD!!! We met at Brenda's house since it didnt make any sense for her to haul all her quilting stuff over to the clubhouse. We first started off by having nummy good supper. Randee & I took out salad and a roasted chicken and Brenda had made a vegetable pizza which was soooo good!!

Next it was time to start cutting ALL the squares. Brenda being the "cutting" girl cut all of them down. My job was to organize them on the ping-pong table. Once Brenda was done cutting we decided on a pattern. It looked amazing having all the squares layed out together and the same size...I was getting soo excited!! We figured out all the measurements so I could go and pick out the binding, boarder and dividers. The only thing I know is I have my backing picked out which I have to get ordered in!!!!

Ohhh...I thought I would brag abit here....so when we were cutting the squares, I could name who gave me each square!! Now that is approx 115 squares that we cut....thats how special each square is too me!!!


Update: Today after surfing through some quilt patterns I came up with the PERFECT one....go figure!! So shhhhh, the ladies dont know that there is a CHANGE IN PLAN!!!

I know I have a few squares to come in from a few swappers (Tracey, Sandra & Louise). So if you reading this can you please get them off in the mail ASAP as they need to be here by our next quilting date. Thats when the sewing starts and I want to make sure they are added to the quilt!! Thanks ladies!!!
