Here are my two blocks for Feb. I may do more but if not then these ones are done and ready to enter for the...

  Finally I finished a block and got the photo taken. Sorry it is not squared up but will do that before it is sent out to winner....

I saw this photo in a review of Pat Sloan’s new appliqué book, Pat Sloan’s Teach Me to Applique: Fusible Appliqué That’s Soft and Simple and thought that our March blocks would look great in a layout like this. There are more images from the book and information in the review on the QuiltShopGal blog – there’s also a giveaway for the book there. Martingale, the publisher, is also running a giveaway including the book,...

It might just be a side-effect of my long frustrating day, but I don’t recognize the name of the winner of our giveaway and I’m assuming she’s a Block Lotto lurker: MARTY ASKINS November 3, 2014 at 5:58 AM I not big on birthday celebrations, my husband took me out to a very nice dinner and surprised me that both of our sons & their girlfriends showed up. I hope you have a great birthday & enjoy whatever you want to do...

The Rafflecopter spit out a winner this morning and she is: Caroline (Quiltermomma1). Caroline said she plans to use the blocks to make a baby quilt for her chiropractors.  I can’t wait to see it. Congratulations, Caroline!

In the way that one thing can lead to another, Kristin was inspired by the giveaway of Elizabeth’s hand dyed fabrics to offer up something for another giveaway on the Block Lotto. In January 2010 we made 280 Tic-Tac-Toe Blocks. Kristin won 40 blocks and is offering them for the giveaway.   Here’s how you can earn chances to win. Earn ONE chance by leaving a comment telling us what you would do with these blocks if you won.  Kristin...

Here’s a quick reminder (and a little fabric eye candy) about deadlines coming up this month: Friday, January 24 at NOON (on the US east coast) is the deadline for posting your Double Chevron blocks in time for receiving the sneak peek at the February block. Saturday, January 25  at 8AM (on the US east coast) is the deadline for entering the giveaway for Elizabeth’s beautiful hand-dyed fabrics.   I picked up the actual fabrics the...

Elizabeth joined the Block Lotto last summer.  She recently offered a set of her beautiful hand dyed fabrics for a give-away.  Thank you, Elizabeth! These are 6 1/2 by 30-inch pieces–about 3 yards of them.  They would make lovely Double Chevron blocks or just about anything else you wanted to make from them. The base fabric she uses is a tightly woven cotton, very much like batik fabric.  The fabrics you win will be similar to these. Elizabeth...

I’m looking for someone who enjoys using scraps in his or her quilting and would be willing to take a bag of them off my hands.  I hate to waste these scraps but I’ll never use them, and we can’t keep stuff in the RV that won’t be used. These are pieces from the latest round of Christmas quilts, so they include a goodly amount of Christmas fabrics and red, green and gold fabrics.  The bag weighs a little over a pound.  I don’t think there are...
