Here It Is !Feb Lotto
Hey Y'all
Valerie chose a darling easy-peasy block for February!
Here's the Link to see the directions.. Scroll down a ways and you will see the measurements for a 12.5" block.. That's what we will be doing
https://www.diaryofaquilter.com/economy ... spiration/
In brief: Per block you will need:
One 6 & 1/2" square block (this is the center)
Two 5 & 1/2" squares, Cut one on the diagonal of each piece
Two 7 & 1/4" squares, also cut once on the diagonal.
Scrappy is the plan for this month... so no need to go buy any fabric ( but If you need some, remember I have a living room full of it )
Here's a couple samples I've made
Great Way to use up some scraps!
Holler if you have any questions. And as in January, send the blocks to me. If you need my address, just PM me!
Blocks Received:
Velda 6
Maryz 8
Chriss 4
Teresa 3
Kathy R 4
Valerie 4
Lori. 9
Katy 5
Me at least 5...maybe more! I'll update when I'm sure
Have I got everybody? Depending on how many I send (I have to pick the best ones ) that's 43-48.. Maybe enough for two winners?

MaryQ, nice to know biggest size, but I'm more curious about the smallest size?!?

Re: Here It Is !Feb Lotto
I want in!! This block looks like a lot of scrap-busting fun! But it's going to take me a few days to get my sewing room back together and my machine set up again. For short travels, I take my old machine (never leave home without it!) but for long trips like our winters in Texas, my new machine goes. And it is still packed deep in the trailer. And for now, laundry and groceries take priority! But next week - watch my smoke!

Re: Here It Is !Feb Lotto
Another good block to practice precision piecing. I'm glad y'all posted now, cause I'm going up to the house tomorrow and I can check my little stash there.
