Lotto Block for January

18 years ago

Hi all,

I will coordinate a Lotto Block for Jan if there is any interest.

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.

Does anyone have qualms if I join in on this? If so I will just sit out.

Center block: a floral pattern, color 2 and 3 coordinating colors.

    I'm in for two. Is this the same lotto that Red hosted or will she be hosting a lotto also?

    I have not problem with you joining in...the more the merrier.

    Sounds like fun. Count me in. I love this pattern and I love florals. Maybe January will be my "lucky" month. I'm on vacation, so put me down for 2. If I get 3 done I'll let you know. Thanks for organizing. JudyLee

    I have sent each of you my mailing address through garden web. Lets see if any of you get it, they are not good at sending mail out.

    Vicky

  • 18 years ago

    Address received!

    Vicky I need clarification ~ I assumed you would be receiving these blocks throughout January and then drawing at the beginning of February BUT I noticed Mayme's blocks are ready to send should I have these to you by the end of December for a name to be drawn early January? Either way I am still in but if you are wanting these by the end of December I better get stitching. Thanks.

    hi guys, i'm molly,a newbie here.from abilene,Texas. can oops,may i join your group,it sounds so fun.let me know,ok? molly

  • 18 years ago

    Welcome, yes you may join in this block lotto. This is a lotto so not everyone that sends in blocks will be getting blocks back, there is only one winner.

    I have joined all kinds of swaps on the forum, some you swap fabric some you make 12 blocks and get 12 different blocks back. All the swaps have been great fun for me. We just did a Christmas swap where we made our secret partner a quilted something and then a gift. We also share share photos of our projects and we ALL LOVE pictures.

    I will send you my address via e-mail.

    Sorry I can't find your addrress from the
    Christmas exchange.

    Ok seeings that I was asked I live in a non-smoking home. But do have pets and we do heat with a coal stove.

    When you send in your blocks place them in a baggy with your name and your dollar bill. Pet dander or any other smells can't get in that way.

    Please remember that because these blocks come from many different homes some may come from a smokers home or homes with pets or wood or coal burning stoves.

    Thank you,
    Vicky

    Vicky, I have mine ready to mail. I just need your address please!

    Abbigail,

    I have sent it to you twice now........ I hope you get it this time.

    Vicky

  • 18 years ago

    I'd like to bring this back to the top. Would anyone else like to join us?

    Vicky

  • 18 years ago

    I'm thinking about it. But I won't commit til I get them done. I haven't done one of these before and they look like fun. If you send in more than one should they be from different fabric?

  • 18 years ago

    Vicky, Mine went in the mail today,
    If the envelope looks like it has been
    opened, IT WAS. I forget to put in my dollar!
    Mayme

  • 18 years ago

    Jean,

    Either way would be fine I think. Both the same or different fabric. I'm doing mine out of different fabrics.

    Vicky

    Hi Vicky! Just wanted to let you know I mailed my lotto blocks today. They are so pretty I hate to part with them- maybe I'll be lucky enough to win them back! :0) Thanks for organizing. Have a great week! JudyLee

  • 18 years ago

    Okay, I'm in for at least 1. Vicky, please send me your address! Do I send $1 per block sent or just $1?

    Jean

  • 18 years ago

    Jean,
    I don't see an e-mail address to send you my address to. Just 1 dollar for any amount of blocks.

    Vicky

  • 18 years ago

    I made a sample block to see if I could do it. Is the finished size supposed to be 12 inches? Mine is more like 121/4 inches. I plan on trying another one now that I have the technique down and if it is the right size, I will send it. Deanna

  • 18 years ago

    The block will be or should be 12 1/2 the other 1/2 inch being taken up when the blocks are put together.

    It was like Christmas when we picked up the mail today three squishies!
