July 2014

  This is my first ever Block Lotto.  I am so looking forward to the drawing.  I hope I win.  I have been sewing since I was 4 years old and could barely stand at the sewing machine.  I have taught sewing to all age levels and all types of sewing.  I find it rewarding when a student can take away one thing and apply it to their everyday sewing.  Well…here are my blocks I made for this month.  I hope they are right ’cause I am...

The pattern is Bull Run from Quiltmaker Sep/Oct 2010. It’s not even “my flavour”, but it’s grabbed me, so...
