I Won!

Woohoo!  I won a copy of Quilts from Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks  just released and on sale now.  At Quiltmaker's blog, Quilty Pleasures, they had a giveaway of 20 copies and I got lucky.  I won one of the ones picked from Twitter.  Here's what they say about getting a copy:

"Quilts from Quiltmaker’s 100 Blocks will sell out quickly so when you see it locally, grab a copy while you can. We recommend buying it from your area quilt shop. Other places to try are Barnes & Noble, JoAnn, Hobby Lobby and many grocery stores. If you can’t find it locally, you might ask the manager to get it (this issue will remain available to retailers long after the grocery stores have sold out). If you can’t find it locally, you can order it from QuiltandSewShop.com."  If you want to see all of the projects, just go on over to their blog (they're on my blog list) and scroll down to the main post about this issue.  There are some gorgeous quilts in there.

Stash Report 2/13/11

I actually shopped this week - on Monday - and bought some fabric:  2 yards of solids for my secret blocks, 1 yard of prints for my secret blocks, and 1.5 yards for the back of a charity quilt.  I did use some of it - phew.  It's not just like I was using it to bolster my stash - lol. And from my stash I actually pulled some out and used it for charity quilts, so here are my numbers.

Used/Donated this week: 3.5 yards
Used/Donated Yr to date: 11.59 yards
Added this wk: - 2.25 yards  (not counting the 1.5 for CQs and adding back .25 left over from backing)
Total Yr to date Added: -3.5 yards
-------------------------------------------
Total Yr to date Used    8.34 yards.

Over at PatchworkTimes, Judy has posted the state of her stash and let others also do so. Check it out.
