WOW Wednesday! I Won!!

I participated in last week's blog tour celebrating the publication of Quiltmaker's V.4 of 100 Blocks.  It was a lot of fun.  Then I got an email I had won - woohoo!

OH MY Goodness!! I thought I was going to get a few fat quarters and lo and behold: I got:

1. the v. 4 magazine AND a cup

2. two great patterns for fast quilts and one marvelous pattern package from Piece of Cake - which I love

and then I almost swooned:

4. all seven of the motif CDs that I've been wanting since the first one came out and had them on my wish list forever! since I'm a domestic machine quilter!  How neat is that?!  Over $250 worth of goodies.  I'm in heaven. 

Thank you, thank you, thank you, Quiltmaker! I had so much fun on the blog tour, learned a lot, and bookmarked quite a few blogs.  So I have a new button for my sidebar.

There'll probably be another tour in the Spring, so be on the lookout for it.

Fabric Story 11/15/11

Here's the back of the quilt from the previous post.  If you enlarge it you can see that I've quilted it. Off to bind it and I'll be able to take it to the guild meeting tonight.  What I liked best about these last two charity quilts is I was able to use up a bag of batting strips.  Using fusible interfacing I pieced two 32" squares of batting for part of the sandwich for each of them.  Something else out of my quilting room!

Design Wall Monday 11/14/11

Well the two charity quilts I had on the wall are much closer to being complete.  The St. Anne ladies sandwiched and tied one and took the other home to sandwich.  I'll be binding one soon.  In the meantime, I put together another one that needs to be sandwiched and quilted.  I'll be doing this one as there was a left over block and I want to use it in the back.  Here it is:

Sometimes I like to make one that is really more for mom.  A sister guild member gave me these blocks and I've put them together for a neonatal quilt. Have to piece the batting and then sandwich.  It's sitting on the back piece.
