I have received blocks from Debbie M. & Linda N. Just waiting on 4 blocks, then I will have received all of mine. Thanks everyone! And then I WILL NOT work on this quilt until I get my son's wedding quilt done! LOL!

... and 4 more from Linda S.

I was just about to send the list of names to Pattilou, when I noticed email from Linda S.  from Napa, California.  With these blocks, our total this month climbs to 235 blocks!


Linda, welcome to the Block Lotto. I love your blocks.

I will resend the blogger invitation to add you as an author and then I'll check my email for any other blocks sent overnight, update the list and send it off to Pattilou so she can do the honors and make FIVE winners very happy.

Ps. to Linda,  a good friend is in Napa county today, competing in the Vineman Triathalon (in the women only fundraiser, Barb's ride, a half-ironman).

... and 4 more

Here are four more blocks from me (on dark navy) . . . for a total of 231 blocks this month.


Four more Fireworks Blocks

This means we will have FIVE WINNERS. The first four names randomly selected will receive a set of 48 blocks and the fifth winner will receive a smaller set of 39 blocks.

I'm off to put together the long list of names for Pat (aka Pattilou) to randomly select the winners.

Cross your fingers everyone ;-)

Three more Fireworks


How great to having a working sewing machine again. I'm preparing for a trip, but I couldn't resist making three more fireworks. That makes my total eight for the month and I think it puts us over the top. I'm going to work on taking pictures without getting my shoes in them!

By the way, if anyone knows good places for quilters in Amsterdam, I'd love to know.

Sophie finally makes her blocks ...

Here are four blocks that I made last night. My fabric is still packed and I found the box of solid kona cotton (and not any black), so these have a dark green background (which is OK according to the guidelines).

Sophie's 4 Fireworks blocks

I thought that Hoffman Challenge fabric from a few years ago (lower right) makes pretty good fireworks.

My four blocks bring the total to 224 ... which is only three away from the number needed for 5 winners. I think I'm going to have some breakfast and make a few more blocks before the deadline.

My July blocks...

Welcom Back Mary!

Mary K from Oregon emailed these photos of blocks to me.


Welcome back to the Block Lotto, Mary. I'll be asking Blogger to send you an invitation to become an author soon.

Re-Conditioned Blocks



These three are not new. I just added sides to them to make them the appropriate size. So don't count these for me again. They're just the same 3 I had made earlier. I wouldn't mind winning this month! What pretty blocks! But whoever wins will have fun with these.

Kristin's July Blocks

Hi all!  It's been awhile since I've been able to participate.  I managed to get three blocks done for this month.  :)

4 blocks

Whew!  Just made it in time!  I have four blocks for the July lotto.  The blocks are square, it's the picture that's not.

Fireworks block

Hi all,
Just one block to contribute this month. It's been a while since I played and it's great to see so many new people. Hope you all enjoy it as much as I do!



I live in Las Vegas, Nevada, and yes, it's darn hot in the summer, but when much of the U.S. is suffering through the winter gray skies and snow, I'm walking my dog in the gently winter sun!
Good luck to all of you!

Three More Firework Blocks


Here are my blocks for the month. One was ready for the sneak peek and I've managed 3 more this month. I'm loving all of the stripe ones I've seen, but I used up some bright tone on tone strips that I had. Interesting how in the photo I like the orange one, but in person it looks too 'thick' to me. Looking forward to seeing what the winners make with these blocks!
{maybe one will be me:)}

Two for July

I hope these are bright enough. I heard Cynthia England speak about using fabric to create "pictures" and I thought the black background with dots are strips would actually look like fireworks.

Going out of town, so these may be my 2 for the month.

So fun! I finally got a few minutes to make blocks for July and had a good time doing it. I've been following here for a few months and this was the first time I've been able to enter anything in. =D
Cheers~
