OH NO - NEVER :0) just attempting to sweeten the deal.

If I was trying to bribe someone it would be my Schwann's guy as he will be picking the names :) Need to keep it legal. :)

Sure do love there Lemon Pie that is waiting in the freezer for my Birthday on Thursday.

Well, this could get interesting. Teresa is sweetening the deal but she is picking. Ohm that's keeping it legal!

They really have seen a lot of the world. Time for a little rest now at my house.

Oh Sonya, did we forget to tell you "all's fair in Love and quilting!"

Pulling the ole Newbie trick? Uhm, might work! Teresa, we haven't tried that one, are we still new enough! Oh I think you just had the old birthday right, LOL. I am newer by a few months so.

OLD HAND OF THE PICKER, PLEASE PICK ME, PICK ME! ROFLOL!

Vivian - did yours actually go out on the 18th, they haven't gotten here?

Recounted this AM and I have 39 blocks so far! Add in the 16 on the way makes 55 blocks.

That gives us the following options:

1. More blocks than that will show up maybe
2. 16 blocks to 3 people would be 48 blocks (7 blocks left over)
3. 12 blocks to 4 people would end up the same
4. 13 blocks to 4 people would be 52 (3 left over)
5. 18 blocks to 3 people would be 54 (1 left over) that would be a 4 block by 4 block quilt with 2 blocks left to make 2 matching pillows extra block can go in our extra block pile.

#5 choice sounds the best to me right now. Lets see what happens over the next few days. Can you believe the month is almost over?

TERESA, LOOK AT ALL THAT MATH I DID ALL BY MYSELF!

Oh Valerie - You did FABulous figuring out the numbers. I AM SEW PROUD OF YOU!!!! :)
Now - of course - when you have all the blocks in your pretty little hands you will want to lay them all out and color coordinate them for us? ROTFLOL!!!!

Did Vicky mail 2 or 4 blocks?
Have you heard from Pam?
Neon - Never quit trying. Anything can happen. The fun part also is in making one extra block to keep yourself each month so you have a sampler quilt at the end of the year just in case you don't win the extra lotto we will try to have at the end of the year. YEA!!!

Now yes you are right - you are newer than me BUT Birthdays trump all!!! LOL

OLD! OLD! OLD! Me? 55 is old? No way. Mel's and my birthday is on Thursday the 26th. She is turning the GREAT and WISE 50! YEA!!!!
A true Red Hat!!

I vote for number 5 as I can always make 2 more blocks to make it a 20 block quilt. I already have the bigger BooBoo blocks for pillows.

BUT the question is do we want 3 or 4 winners?

Vicky's blocks arrived and there are 2. Very nicely done.

No word from Pam

Vivian's have not arrived and I am getting nervous about that. If I remember right she lives in Ohio and there have been storms in that part of the country. I went back through the stack thinking maybe I just forgot to post them and they just aren't here. Can't remember where Pam lives. I have to go look at your map!

Yes, birthdays do trump:

AND TODAY IS YOUR BIG DAY!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR TERESA AND MELANIE
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!

Happy Birthday Teresa and Melanie! Hope you have a fantabulous day! :o)
I sure hope Vivians show up, keeping fingers crossed. I wonder if she happened to get a tracking number?
If Pam does 4 and Vivians show up then we'll have 63, which will be enough for 3 quilts with 16 and 1 with 15 and if I'm picked I'd take the 15 :o) no problem to add 1 more :o) or if Pam's is only 2 then 4 quilts of 15 and we could all make 1 more hehe, and the 1 extra in the extras pile....... just saying.
Oh great hand of the picker please please please PICK ME PICK ME PICK ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'd really really LOVE LOVE LOVE to win this month! I made the one for my mom and gave it away like Jules and so I think we should be 2 of the winners ;o) >< >< >< >< >< >< Fingers are crossed!
