FEBRUARY LOTTO - Winning Hands 12.5" block
Hello Everyone. It took me a lot more time to get my blocks finished this month. I saw mine were not the same size as yours so I un-stiched all 4 down to the 4-patch, took the measurements of yours and re-finished mine. I was not going to give up on this month!!! I also need to remember there are only 28 days in the month - LOL!!!
Because it is 1:07am ... I will have a "Hand of the Picker" choose tomorrow. I want to make sure it is fair. I have to say I Truly Love and Thank you ALL for the little notes I receive!!!!
Because there are still only the 5 of us I will stick with 2 Winners. Still always hoping more pals will join us.
Rob went over to Leah's home to work on her computer so she picked the names
THE WINNERs ARE ..........
JACQUIE and ME !!!!!!
***************** CONGRATULATIONS though to you ALL for joining thus month and making beautiful blocks. I will be putting mine up on the wall to get it ready to sew. You are what makes this so enjoyable!!!
March Lotto will appear today. So many choices!!! I made a few samples and then finally found the one I to make this month. More coming up also later today. Off to bed I go...

Valerie. Thank you for pointing out that I needed to change how many you sent. You can send as many as you want that is up to you. Your colors are fantastic and I look forward to seeing them in person, up close and personal. Make sure you post to reason why you picked these colors.
Mary Q. I have a book of Eleanorโs that is called Winning Hands but I donโt know that this block is in any other block. Iโve gone through the books that I have and unless a book is hiding I donโt see one in them. I can take a picture of anything in my book that will help you. Just let me know.
Jacquie. Love your blocks and the reason for your colors. Yes they do indeed bring joy and smiles to my heart.
Katy. Welcome also. Always a joy for you to join us as is everyone. Thrilled you finished your quilt. I looks wonderful in pictures!! Eager to see it in person.
We are on a roll .... Happy peacing!!!
