Hello.  I am Deana and your July Block Lotto hostess.  I have been quilting for over 20 years and enjoy creating my own designs.  You can find me at dreamworthyquilts.blogspot.com.   Many years ago I was in a quilt shop and fell in love with a red forest quilt on the wall.  I took a picture and hoped one day I would make it.  I have decided to do that quilt for July’s Block Lotto.  It is a very simple block, and you will make them in...

Thank you, Sophie, for hosting the Block Lotto and organizing it so well.  Also, thank you to all who made and sent blocks.

Count me in for this month.  I made a bird and named her Yellow Bellied Toad Beak. Sophie, I am in Hive 7 of the Stashbee and low and behold the queen bee for July is having us make your lotto  bird blocks.  They were so much fun that I threw in one for the Lotto  I love your pattern!

I made one big flower block for the Lotto, well if you can really count fusing as making (ha ha).  This was an easy one.  Thanks Sophie!...

I am excited to share with the Block Lotto community a quilt I just finished.  I used Sophie’s flower pattern from August 2011 for the border.  I love it!  This quilt would not have been the same without this border. I have always referred to this quilt as my “Autumn Flowers” because of the autumn colored flowers.  Below is a close up photo of the block with the names of friends and family who made each block and when they...

Mary Jane, Peggy, and Elizabeth should be receiving blocks form me within a week.  I dropped them at the post office today.   Enjoy and CONGRATULATIONS!!!

I made 9 window blocks for the sneak peak.  They are cute and delightful to make....
