Whatever everyone else decides is ok with me. What a problem to have too many lotto blocks :-)

I'm hoping I have beginners luck this month. I'm redoing my bedroom over in blue/yellow and white!

OK ladies, I have a solution...We usually have enough for a bedsize quilt as it is,,,I will just get the blocks as usual,,when I draw winnner number one, I will contact her and see how many she wants for her bed. The rest will be sent to second winner.Hows that sound???Second winner might not get a wall quilt, but hey,theres table toppers and other things to make,so it would still be fun!!! Hows that sound??? I dont mind the extra "work" ,,but will need to ask for an extra stamp. I think this sounds fun,it will give people more chances,and you all are so eager and I get lots of sign ups. I was on another forum some time back and they could hardly get enough people signed on for just a wall hanging.Thank you for your participation. It helps me keep my mind off my problems when I have something like this to do and can help others have a little fun. So is this a GO,and do you want to start now or wait til next time around? (we have a lot of blocks coming this time, plus my three I donate)

NOW!!! This month!....would be good! I want these blocks too! ;)
I don't think you need to sort them out unless you want to. After all we do know that we receive what is sent in. It's up to you I'd say on that even though the thought had gone through my mind with the same question!

I agree Brenda. Let's start this month. I counted 20 x 3 = 60 blocks at 12-1/2 inches square that is a lot of fabric!

We have 63 blocks coming this month,It would take 35 blocks to cover a queen size bed 5 blocksx7 blocks. I would say start this month.

Sounds like almost enough for two queen size quilts. Sure wouldn't take much adding to the second place group. This month is a good time to start.

We might even get more sign-ups. Caroline,maybe add more numbers to the bottom of the list so anyone "browsing" can see there is still room for more.

I have my finges crossed for Maryq also. But I think this block/colors are definitely a favorite of all involved.
Have Fun,

GREAT idea!! I'm happy with whatever the group says -- but I sure do like the idea of sharing the wealth! Thank-you Caroline!!

My blocks will be in the mail in a few minutes.
Happy Trails, jacquie2

That sounds like a good plan to me! I say go for it as long as you aren't making a ton more work for yourself!
