Re: March 2023 Lotto!
First one done. It squares to 12.5 inches. Cut per the directions, sewed a scant 1/4 inch seam, used Aurafil thread, alternate seam directions, press with Best Press. I also put the 12.5 inch square ruler on the block when it is hot and then a heavy book. Leave a few minutes to cool. Your block will stay flat.

Re: March 2023 Lotto!
great block Valerie, I used your trick of changing sewing directions while putting the block together. I've never used anything but water when ironing.
Can't wait to see what you have in store for us for April.

Re: March 2023 Lotto!
I have 5 done, 2 more to go but decided to organize the sewing room. Big mistake, should have waited till blocks were done. Now I have to finish up some anyway so I can get to the machine.
I have a block picked out for April. Will be upping the difficulty just a hair but it will still be easy. Remember this is the year of practice! Practice! Practice!

Mary, it is a cool block and looks neat as a quilt. the white squares help make the pattern. It's really neat. But, just so's you'll know, my fingers are also crossed.

Re: March 2023 Lotto!
I have 4 cut out and planning on sewing tomorrow. 2 reds and 2 blues.
I love all the blocks. Definitely made me want to do this one. BUT …
I know who I want to win and it’s not me
