Today, I (Susan) mailed my blocks. 4 of them. I’m sorry I forgot to whom I mailed them, but I discarded the list when I addressed the envelope two days ago. Ooops! The P. O. receipt says they are on their way to Michigan, though!

These were so easy and fun to make. I used only scrap pieces and found everything I needed.     Yes, I know I did it backwards. I wanted to see how it looks, but when you put it with other blocks, it would still have the ball shapes at the...

I mailed my witch today. I look forward to seeing all the blocks come together!

I’m on the board with one October block, and maybe there will be time later in the month for more. This block is a donated...

Off to Peggy this afternoon, before five pm! I hope you enjoy every single one! From Susan at DesertSky Quilting

We had a total of 56 blocks made this month, and ten were donated chances. 10 people made blocks and 3 people donated all their chances. That means seven people in the pot to win either a set of 30 blocks or a set of 26 blocks.   And the winners are … Which means Kathy S. (30) and Peggy (26)! Congratulations! Watch for the list from Sophie later on who sends what where. Kathy S. and Peggy, please let Sophie know if you are keeping...

Sophie put the post and the two sheets together in a .pdf you can download by clicking here. It doesn’t open another window, but will download to wherever you have told your computer to put downloads. Oh, wait, Sophie just told me that whether clicking the link opens the PDF in your browser or downloads it to your computer depends on what browser and the user’s browser settings. So keep that in mind, too. =) I have not checked that...

This is the running total of blocks posted for September. Toward the end of the month, double check to see that your name and the total blocks, donated and in the drawing, are included, just in case I miss someone!

If you have questions about anything, please don’t hesitate to let me know. I may have over-explained in an effort to make sure everyone could follow the directions and the pictures. It’s a picture heavy post! Making the blocks is fast – less than half an hour yields two before you add appliqués to one. You ONLY add appliqués to the blue baskets. I ask that you read through the entire pattern and study the pictures before...

I forgot to post on Tuesday that I mailed my 3 blocks to Sharon. It’s going to be a beautiful forest!

I missed last month, so I didn’t want to get left out again. Here are three trees for me, and I hope to make more. We’ve had some outstanding block designs this year! My problem is black and gray, but I did find this one nice black. I may have to go buy...

I never could get to the post office, so I put my two blocks in an envelope with three stamps and left it for the mailman today. Flag is down, so it’s on its way to Linda!
