boo, I have never heard of a MODA candy bar - singly or in a set - can you take a picture - so we know what you are talking about - just share it here with your question - if you would.

I did a search and found this:
4 links:
[1] MODA Candy Bars
fatquartershop.blogspot.com
[2] MODA Candy Bars
www.suzzettsfabric.com
[3] Candy Wrappers
www.modabakeshop.com
[4] Charms

hey, what i have is out of the milk choc collection which the fatquarter shop has in your link. 2.5x5" ..smaller then a charm pack? i have never ever made a quilt, so im not looking to do that in a week and a full time job too lol.
i was thinking a bag but im not sure how easy it will be to co-ordinate all the pieces

Great sites,shirlener; they have patterns for Non-sew Wrap for those who have little time. Simple 'n easy: love it.
As to the other stuff jelly rolls,fat quarters, moda bars: all fancy ways of dressing up a product! Fun stuff! TU

Must be a quilting question. I've heard of fat quarters, fat eigths and jelly rolls, but a MODA candy roll I've never heard of---must be smaller than a jelly roll.....

yes you are right. must be brand new to moda because i cant find anything! apparently to me it looks like they are sold in a set of 4 and you get a recipe book with it. but little did i know when i purchased 1 bar!!

If it is A fabric piece and you would like to co-ordinate with other fabric, you could make it up as applique.Use as a baby quilt, a cushion cover, place mats, bag.
The lovely flower applique free yesterday, from this cute site, using your one fabric, splashed on over a plain fabric would make a lovely Tablecloth.
Please show us in projects when you're done. The decision is always the hardest part of every project.
Have fun and happy stitching!

How many pieces of fabic did you get with one bar? Does it have to be a quilt? If I knew what the rules are that would help.

there are no rules, i just have one candy bar, which has 40 pieces of fabric 2.5 x 5" . . im not an expert with too many sewing techniques, i just dont know what the heck i can make with this!

Clothing stores used to send in the mail samples of fabric and as a little girl I used them to make doll cloths. Look around and see what you need and make something for you.

Interesting, I had never heard of it.
I like the applique idea.
I used to use small fabric pieces for crafts like covering a round pin or magnet base. I would make it puffy by putting a layer of batting under the fabric. I did most of it with glue not sewing.
I have seen barrettes that use small pieces too.
