Hello Everyone. WELCOME to our Beginning of the Holiday's Lotto. We are now into our Fall, Christmas and Winter journey of the Lotto!!!! I am EXCITED!!!! We have some great suggestions that will be fun for all to stitch together. Sew lets get our bobbins moving along.
BLOCK: 10in Log Cabin with a 6.5" sq to start
Here is another idea for a center. Not sure of the measurements yet but will figure it out. El has got to have them somewhere. I know I have made one.
BEGIN with a 6.5" block that can be Pieced or Applique (blanket stitch) and then ADD 2.5" Strips. Cut the last 2 strips an 1/8" over 2.5" so that the WINNERs will be able to Sq to 10.5"
