The Winners Circle

Thank you all for your nice comments about Jill's beautiful blocks.  I've come up with a plan and I will share it soon.

Thanks for joining in the giveaway.  Rich pulled the winners.

#1 - Halloween 4-patch Posie
What a special UFO to have received. It is beautiful too. What a great way to bless your friend by taking her work to a finish when she can't.
Thanks for a chance to win a great giveaway. I choose #5! I also really like #1.
Have a great day!

#2 -  Jack 'O Lantern
I have made that block of Jill's before and it wasn't easy! lol I have blocks and a diagram of the block as well, but had no idea what the "plan" was.
I'd love to win something. In order, 5, 4 and 2. Enjoy the show!

#3 - Sunbonnet Sue
Would love #1 or #3. You're always thinking of something wonderful to do!

#5 - King George Leftovers

On Saturday I volunteered at a town event:  Pouches on Parade.  It was a fundraiser for our library.  Here is our Ring Master.

coco won a Blue Ribbon for tallest Chocolate Lab.  The other categories were longest ears, shortest tail, you get the idea.  It is all just for fun.

After judging (which was measuring, not judging)  I was able to walk her in the Chocolate Labs parade.  There were 4 in her category.   Doesn't she look happy and proud or is that me?

Congratulations to the UFO winners - please email me your home address at barb.vedder@gmail.com and I'll get them in the mail this week -

Back to working on finishing my nine patches for the swap.
Happy Sewing~

  7. Blue is an excellent color on Coco. Considering her quilt sense, she deserves the ribbon for smartest dog too. The runner is perfect for this time of year.
