Last Call for April Blocks – Noon & Light

Posted by on April 29, 2018 in block lotto community | Comments Off on Last Call for April Blocks – Noon & Light

Hello Quilters! Tomorrow is the 30th and I will be drawing for two winners at 1:30 PM (PDT).  I won’t be near a computer till then. So if you haven’t finished your Noon and Light blocks (or want to add more), you have until 12 Noon to get them posted. In the meantime, please check out the list of blocks donated this month (the link is in At a Glance) to make sure you are listed correctly.  Thank you for participating.

Noon and Night Blocks

Here’s my blocks for the month – nine entries and one donation, since it was easiest to make them up in pairs.  This was a really fun pattern and a good excuse to work through a bit of my scrap bin.  Thanks, Angie!

Late Noons

It’s been a busy month, but I managed to finish 6 Noon and Light blocks for donation.                 I have not done much trimming of HSTs and have totally ignored everyone’s exclamations of delight with the Bloc-Loc ruler. Necessity to the rescue— you can put 3 layers of masking tape along the 45º line of your square ruler and make a very acceptable substitute....

The boat from Australia arrived yesterday afternoon bringing Susannahs from Margaret. Combined with the blocks I received from Angie and Linnea earlier in the week, my pile of yummy green blocks is complete. Anxiously, I will begin trying to execute my plan next week.

Karen, My South African orphan also arrived this week.  I’m glad I wasn’t on the plane, like your envelope, for over a month!  I’m glad to have received it, and all the rest of the blocks from the lotto players.  Now for the fun part. Kathie L in Allentown

They’re all here at last

The last of my orphan blocks arrived yesterday from Karen N in South Africa. What a tale they could tell of their travels!  Anyway, they are all gathered on my design wall, getting acquainted.  Not sure what the final quilt will be, I am thinking some sashing would make them stand out better, but for now my wall is a happy place in my sewing room.  Thanks,...
