Design Wall Monday - April 18,2011

As promised here are the Lotto Blocks I won from the BLOCK LOTTO Blog. There are 48 blocks here - two are mine. 6x8 makes 48 as I learned in the 3rd grade. I have them matched into pairs and am ready to sew them together. Then I get to decide what to do for the borders...

I never imagined that I would win the first month I participated. It was so fun to have so many squishies waiting for me when I got home from my journey. I have to show them on my wood floor upstairs because my SWAP blocks are on my Wall downstairs. So many shades of red in there, don't you think?

March Block Lotto

Today I have made two blocks to submit to the March Lotto. Thanks to Pat H for the link to see the Block Lotto Blog and to Sophie for letting me join today. I just recently learned about the D4P block. You can click on the links at the Blog to get the Patterns. You can find the Button here on my blog too.

This block is made by cutting 5" squares to make the 4-patch. Each WOF cut of 2 fabrics makes 4 blocks. The four patch is cut 1" away from the center seam of the 4-patch, then sewn back together as a 9-patch. It results in a 8" finished Block.
