Congratulations to the November winners. I was hoping one would have been me, but I did win the September curved rails. I am glad that Sophie found a way to make the winners non-repeaters .Stay tuned for a preview of my curved rail project. There are only 2 borders left to go on, and other than one major mistake (try to find it after I post) I love the way it is turning out!Again CONGRATULATIONS to the November winners. Happy...

As previously posted, there will be no block lotto in December.  Some of you will be glad because you’re so busy that you’d never have time to make lotto blocks anyway.  Others may miss having a lotto block excuse for a little me-time away from the hustle and bustle of the season.  For the second group, here’s some suggestions. DO SOMETHING WITH THOSE LOTTO BLOCKS! Have you won some lotto blocks . . . that are...

Pat from the UK emailed this photo of her two blocks to me with this note: Hi Sophie, I’ve been really busy this past month or so and not keeping up with things.  I did make two blocks for this month yesterday, photographed them this morning but forgot the time difference when I came to post them just now.  Anyway, there are two more blocks to add to the total if you would like to include them. I am attaching a pic as it seems a...

Here are three for this month…I plain forgot to post!  Am I too late? Shelley aka madme...

Congratulations to the winners!  Can’t wait to see your creations.  Poor me, poor me (just kidding of course).  I didn’t win at all in 2012.  Oh well, not my year.  I won twice in 2011, so maybe next year will be better.  I’m happy for those who did win.  Mine will prepare for the envelopes!

Well, I’m certainly doing the Happy Dance!! I’m excited and can’t wait to see the wonderful variety of blocks I have won!! Thanks everyone!!! Belinda Browndirtcottage.com

Here are nine blocks for the lotto this month. I managed to get them all sewn. They all will make a lovely colourful quilt. Thank you for picking this block Sophie. The photo includes the two that I posted earlier. Good luck to everyone who submitted blocks this month. Since this is our last lotto this year, I hope you all have a great, safe holiday season. Coralie in...

but sad for me. Make something pretty! Congratulations!!!

I started with a numbered list, organized alphabetically by first name. I distributed the donated chances among the 13 quilters who have never won lotto blocks. And then I let the random generator site do it’s work: This translates to: Belinda Debra Benta Jo Michelle Kristin Cyndi Ellie The last number belonged to someone who had already won, so I went back to the source to choose a replacement:  And our ninth winner this month is:...

I see that I am a winner of Scrappy Trips Blocks!  Thank you all!  I look forward to using the blocks. I just completed a quilt top for my DS  for Christmas….Scrappy Trips with a single green fabric for the diagonal since he said his favorite color is green.  The same fabric will be used for backing and binding.  As I worked on this I had the thought I could work with this same block for a longtime and get different results depending on...

My computer has been misbehaving, so I haven’t been on top of all the last minute blocks you all have been posting … I’m playing catch up this morning, updating the list and double-checking it one more time before I randomly choose the winners. I can’t believe how many blocks have been made and/or posted in the last couple days.  Our total is 331 blocks–enough for 9 winners to receive a set of at least 36...

In November, 62 quilters made 333 blocks. We had nine winners–each will receive a set of 37 blocks.  Congratulations again to our winners:  Balinda, Benta, Cyndi, Debra, Ellie, Jo, Kristen, Maree and Michelle. Here’s the list of blocks made, saved here before I wipe the slate clean in preparation for Block Lotto 2012. November Block List: 333 Blocks Andi – 4 Andra – 6 Andrew – 5 Angela – 3 Barbara B...
