Today I mailed blocks to Maree, Julie P. and Kristin. I can’t wait to see what cool things you do with them! Sharon K.

Here are my four spiky leaf blocks for this month. The first I made is the one on the bottom left (pink background). For the solid lime green leaves I cut the bias strips from an 8 inch high fabric piece, for the dotty ones were from a 5 inch high piece. The shorter lengths of bias  worked better when the block was trimmed to the required final size. I am still not confident that I understood the process. Apologies for seams being more than...

Here is a second block to donate.  It was much easier than the first.  Really fun to play around with and wee how it comes...

Here is one block to donate for July.   After looking at the directions and saying no way!  I remembered why I was doing Block Lotto to begin with…  to be challenged to try new things!  Turns out  it was much easier than I thought.  Just follow the directions step by step and you will have a block.  I thought I might need to rip out so I sewed in basting stitches to start but I didn’t need to.  I will make a few more before the...

Here are my three blocks for the Block Lotto this month. As for catching up with everything … my plan is to send out the mailing info for the bullseye blocks and update the at-a-glance and QAL pages sometime tomorrow.  Thanks for...

Here are my blocks for June lotto. 9 for the draw 3 for the pot. I liked the colors and the blocks were easy enough to put together. Hope I get lucky!    

Two blocks from Barbara...

I received the last leaves from Debbie in Israel yesterday. Thank you Debbie, and thanks to all who sent their leaves so quickly. I have plans for them, but probably won’t get to it until later on in the Fall.

The blocks I posted yesterday did not fit the criteria for the block layout.  I didn’t read the directions that said the middle and other ring had to be the same fabric.  Doof!  I deleted that post and made new blocks.  Here are my five bullseye blocks for June.  I didn’t get as much curve in that little piece that I wanted....

These blocks were so much...

Nine blocks from me for the drawing.  Despite being in my favorite colorway, these were difficult… because I realized I had very little of the colors left in my stash!  Clearly I must remedy this color gap the next time I go fabric shopping....

My colors in the photo are not true to the real thing. I am pretty sure they are how they are supposed to be. I did make a mistake with my first try though. Didn’t read the directions careful enough and promptly didn’t have the inside and middle the same color. So I did it again. Good practice. Wanted to donate these in time for the sneak peek but I see I missed it. Ha-ha, got to have patience now. I did like making these...
