I like that you get 12 different rectangles. I'm not a quilter, but seems like it would make a very pretty patchwork quilt. Watching until closer to sign up.

Lady Stephanie, even if you aren't a quilter they are straight stitchings. And there is a way to do the folding inside out when attaching a backing. And a backing can be as easy as an old worn in soft sheet you already have in your closet or one you buy. Also there are places out there (not sure where you are) that you can pay to do the quilting for you. I never do this, can't afford it lol. But because they are basic shapes all you have to do once attaching the back is follow the shapes and top stitch through the layers and walla it's quilted. You don't have to do ever rectangle either. There is another product out that I bought at a quilt show that you pounce powder over a stencil, following the powder lines with the sewing machine, quilting cute things on. Sorry my descriptions aren't that great but I'm trying lol. I think it's called pounce. It's cheap, but when ironing or washing the pounce disappears. Its amazing stuff lol.

If you check at your local quilt shop they will know quilters who will quilt for you.

Thank you all for your encouraging ideas and comments! This old grandma loves 'em! Wow, 14 folks watching......remember, these are the only Honey Buns around that won't cause you to gain weight!

Oh what a goof I am! I forgot to click that I'd sent this swap back on 10-2, and so I just did it. I know that at least one of my partners has already received her package.....oh silly me!
