When I 1st woke up this morning, I wanted to rush to the computer and check out my blog and Quiltmake's Blog Tour page, but I made myself wait. I had to get my granddaughter off to school, she's in the 5th grade and follow my routine. I can also see that blogging is going to be addictive, at least at 1st. Plus, I do need to learn more about post pictures and tweeking my blog page.
But imagaine my surprise when I went to the " Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks Blog Tour ": and the 1st block that popped up was mine- - # 296 !!!!!! Like I mentioned in the post, earlier this morning, the rough line drawing of my block and wall hanging layout, is not so hot, but for my 1st attempt at putting something like that on a blog, I feel I did good !!!! But I will take some picutres this week of the block in another color set and a picture of the wall hanging.
And I want to thank those who have already commented on my block and blog and everyone who has commented today, their names go into a hat for my granddaughter to pull a name from. And that lucky person will get the copy of the Quiltmaker's 100 Block Vol # 3.
In the meantime, here is a color picture of my block # 296 - - Around the Block
I have quilted a long time but only found Bonnie a short time ago. I would love to win the Quiltmakers 100 block book.
ReplyDeleteAnd I love your block in that pink & blue.

ReplyDeleteCongrats on the honor of having your block chosen! I have always liked the pinwheel block, it is so versatile, whether as a stand alone or filler block.
