I am so grateful for my Blessings and not just this month. I have some GREAT Quilt-y Friends. I have to Shout out to a few today. I LOVE going to
Quiltville.com and getting my copy of QM in the mail every 2 months. This issue is from November last year. Bonnie is stitching these "moth in the Window" blocks up for an upcoming book. After watching her on Quiltcam a few times, I had to get some Shirtings (aka: recycled fabrics) and cut them up to make some too. You see ---
Blogg-y Friends are "enablers".
I mentioned to
Janet O that I was making these and asked if she wanted to SWAP some Shirtings. Next thing I know I have a package in my mail with these beauties in it. Love the variety of colors, even a Purple one in there. I am so Happy I asked.
Blogg-y Friends like to Share.
These are the Batiks I got from Heather- the Mystery by Email Designer. I won't use them so whoever comments first gets them. How about that??! Should I place bets on WHO that will be?
EDIT: Congrats to JANET O, one of my ever-faithful comment-ers!
Nope, I'm not a gambler.
PROOF: I mailed out my 100 Blocks Magazines and then saw that one of my Winners (aka: Lucky
Denise) also won a copy from two more of the Blogs she visited on the Real Blog Tour.
Blogg-y Friends like GIVEAWAYS.
Here is my Lotto Block for Guild after I un-sewed it. Much Better.
Below are the Lotto Blocks that I WON at the Guild Meeting. There were 17 made this month. I only made 1, thinking, I won't win... :)
I even had to call DH at home to bring it to me, I left it up on the Design wall.
Blogg-y Friends and I have great Husbands.
This morning I hear a commotion at the door and go to find a package has been slipped through the mail slot. One of the Guild ladies also forgot her Lotto blocks at home and offered to bring them to me. NICE!
Since hers are all the same I put them in the corners of the 2nd picture. I guess I am making a FALL colored Monkey Wrench Quilt now.
And the news to top it all- I was asked to take over the Block Lotto at Quilt Guild last night. I'll be SEWING a New Block at least once a Month next year.
Sometimes Blogg-y people like me just can't say NO!
