February Lotto block

18 years ago

February Lotto block is going to be a little different!

You can pick any of the below heart pattern or pick one of your own. Rules are the finished block has to be 12 1/2 inches, so it the pattern is a paper pieced heart that is 3 inches you make 16 and put them all together to be a finished 12 1/2 inch block if the block size is 6 inches you make four, if it is a 8 inch finished you put a border around it to make it 12 1/2 inch, ect. The color is any shades of red or pink and white.

Every month I will post a block and fabric requirements for each month we are playing! For each block you send in (up to 3) your name will go into the hat for that month. The first day of the following month a name will be drawn from all blocks that arrive at my house on or before end of the month, these players have a chance at the drawing to be held the 1st of the month. Any blocks arriving after the end of the month will be forwarded on to the winner. All blocks sent in will be sent to the winner. If 50 blocks are sent in, get ready to win 50! There will be no splits of the pot! One winner each month.............For postage I am asking everyone to included a Dollar to cover postage and cost of the envelope to be mailed to the winner............with your block in your baggie include your name, address and forum name and your dollar.

Lets have fun on this one!!!

    I love hearts. Put me down for 2. Maybe this will get me back in the mood to quilt. :)

  • 18 years ago

    I've been out of the loop for a while...do these need to be in by the end of Feb?

    I also need an address to send them to.

  • 18 years ago

    Would these be red/white/pink hearts on a white background, or on any colour background? (red, pink, white-on-white, etc)

  • 18 years ago

    Let me clarify the colors. You can pick any color in the pink, or red family or any combo of them with white or WOW as a background fabric.

    Do we have anymore takers on this heart lotto? I found another heart pattern to put in with the rest. Crafteedee you better wait to see if anyone else would like to join before making up your blocks.

    I was going to try to make at least 1, if not more. I usually wait till it is actually done though, before making it official, just in case it doesn't work out :)

  • 18 years ago

    I am also going to try make at least 1.
    I love hearts. This would be a fun one to win.

    Hello Vicki ~ will future monthly lotto blocks also be based around a holiday/seasonal theme or basic blocks? Ex: shamrocks for March, bunnies or eggs for Easter etc...? Thanks

    Marty

  • 18 years ago

    No, not all the lotto blocks will be based on a holiday theme. I just picked it this way this month. If you have a lotto block you would like to see please let me know. I'm open for suggestions.

  • 18 years ago

    mayme, It's ok that you send four blocks but I can only put your name in the pot three times ok.

    "For each block you send in (up to 3) your name will go into the hat for that month. "

    I'm excited to these, reds was great! I have to make mine, I know what I'm making just have to get back on the machine!

    Vicky

  • 18 years ago

    No problem. I'll send 3 and keep the other
    one for something else.

    Hi Vicky, did you get my blocks yet? I'm hoping that they will make it there. I know there was a snow storm today, maybe that delayed the mail. Thanks for hosting.

    Sorry for not getting my blocks in. I wanted to participate, but my month kind of went sour with an unexpected funeral. :(

  • 18 years ago

    craftdee you know what we all have months like that. It is ok. It's not like birthday blocks or a swap where people are waiting on them. They turned out real nice this month and I just know the March blocks are going to be BEAUTIFUL! I'm hoping more people will join us next month.
