[Caroline1947]

If there is enough interest, I will host a Block Lotto beginning in January. Here are the rules. If you would be interested, please let me know,and I will go from there. Here are the rules so you can decide. Thanks!!! Have FUN!!! Caroline

Block Lotto

Lotto is for QIAD form members only

Hostess will choose a pattern and color theme which will be easy

enough for all to do.

You may send in from one to three blocks

You will be entered once per block

Hostess will draw a name on the last day of the month and the winner

will receive all the blocks

I require nothing for hosting other than I ask you enclose 2 stamps to

cover postage to mail blocks to winner.

There will be a pre determined amount of blocks required for a queen

size quilt..if the entries exceed that amount the extra blocks will be set

aside until December when there will be a drawing for those for a

Sampler quilt

You do not have to enter every month, you may make only blocks you

like..but you must have entered at least one block a month to be eligible

for the Christmas drawing..

Blocks should be pressed, trimmed of loose threads,and as well

constructed as you are able. No one expects perfection,but do try to send

blocks that you would be proud to receive yourself.

Enclose blocks in a baggie with two stamps. If you are a smoker please

give the a quick shot of Febreeze.

Mail blocks to me by the end of the month.Drawing will be held the firts

day of the following month. Any late blocks will go into the Christmas

drawing.

In your envelope,include your real name,your Forum name,your e mail

I've participated in both lottos and swaps. They both have their advantages. My swap blocks still need to be made into quilts but my lotto block win is now a quilt. Hum... maybe that means I should particiate in the lottos instead of the swaps?

Will the fabrics be specific, like it was in the autograph swap (use this sepecfic fabric) or something more general -- wow background and med & dark blue (not that that sound very general -- it's all realative)
