I SEE RED

I have rejoined BLOCK LOTTO.

Here is my first block - FIREBALL.

As it is red I am also including this as a RSC project.

My Chevron blocks

January's Chevron Blocks for BLOCK LOTTO

I have done 4 of these blocks.

3 are purple and 1 is a very dark brown.

These were made with the easy technique for 1/2 square triangles.

8 at once. EASY.

Go on over to have a look.

December Block Lotto

I am part of a Block Lotto

It is a group that makes a set of designated blocks for the month. The amount of blocks gives you a ticket for each in the draw. You can win or not. Luck of the draw.

I have only recently joined this group. I use it for a bit of practice, participation and communication. Maybe I might even win some blocks to make a quilt. Let's hope.

This month was relatively easy and quick to do.

All we had to do was cut 2" strips, 3 white tone on tone & 3 printed.

Trim the block to 6.5" * 9.5".

Great for the Xmas build up.

These are my 6 sneak peek blocks.

A little Christmas surprise

With my Block Swaps & Block Lotto winners parcels I have included a little Christmas Surprise.

A little sewn Christmas Tree decoration.

My 9 banded baskets for BLOCK LOTTO November 2013

I am part of an online group called BLOCK LOTTO

We make up to 9 blocks of a specified block and upload them. We then go in to a draw at the end of the month. There are 2 winners that share the prize. Last month there was 126 blocks to share.

Lucky girls who won.

Here are my entries for November 2013.

October Block Lotto.... Oak Leaf

I have joined an online group called Block Lotto.

You make the nominated block, up to 9, then that's how many tickets you get in the draw to win a bundle of the ready made blocks.

This is my first time and I have made 8 blocks.

Now to try and upload them so I can be entered in the draw.
