I Made Some Stars

Yes...I made some stars.......9 to be exact. That made me 9 chances of winning for this months drawing in the BLOCK LOTTO. I joined up the first of October because the block for the month was variable stars. Well, if you have followed my blog for these last couple of years you know i love stars!!! They are so versatile and fun to make. You can't mess them up....in fact i try to mess them up! The goofier you make them the more interesting they become! These are the largest stars I have ever made. These will measure a 9" finished block. So here is a parade of the ones I made. Hope you like them as much as I do!







The main reason for this post is to let you know I WON! I WON! Yes, I was one of the winners. There were so many stars made this month there was enough to have 5 winners this time. The first 4 winners will receive 48 stars each and the 5th winner will receive what is left. I was one of the top 4. So....I will be getting to keep the 9 i made and will have 39 more being sent to me in the ole snail mail. YIPPEE!!!!!!
You should go check out the BLOCK LOTTO. There is no commitment. You can choose any month or block we are making on any given month. All you have to do is make anywhere from 1 to 9 blocks. It's your choice to make as many as you have time for. It's a LOT OF FUN!!
I also talked my bloggy friend SHARON from INDIGO THREADS into joining this last month and she WON TOO!!!! Isn't that crazy!!!! I must say.....Sharon probable likes me pretty good about now!!!!

  18. I love them. My daughter has been talking to me about making my designs more modern. I know I can come to your blog and get a different perspective. I love that. You are modern and fresh with a little traditional thrown in. You're not afraid of color. I love that. I'm not either. I think too many people box themselves in. Love what you do. Keep it up.
