Hi Everyone!
I’m very excited to be participating on the first day of the blog hop promoting Quiltmaker Magazine’s 100 blocks by 100 designers, Volume 8!
This is the 7th consecutive issue I have participated in, and let me tell you, these issues get better and better and better!
There are blocks of every kind to suit every taste, from traditional and modern pieced blocks, to paper pieced blocks – blocks for appliquers and embellishers and embroiderers alike!
I just love looking at the variety of blocks and all the different techniques used to make them and am so inspired by what is pulled together all in one volume for you!
My block started out as a “What can I do with all these left over bonus triangles” experiment!
The first block I did came from the bonus triangles from several Boxy Stars quilts that were donated to charity. I made the block from the bonus triangles in random scraps in 2005:
Saving bonus triangles in usable sizes mean I actually DO use them! I used my Bonus Triangle Buddy to mark my second sewing line giving me triangle squares that give me an even measurement for ease of use!
Click HERE to learn how to save your bonus units so they are ready to go!
For volume 8 of 100 blocks – I wondered if I could tone down my usual scrappy everything look – for a bit more of a subtle color way:
I love blue and green together!
I dug into my blue and green scraps and my pre-cut squares from my Scrap User's System, including things like civil war, batik, old calicoes, recycled shirts, plaids stripes and everything under the sun as long as it was in these two color families. My usual love of scrappy neutrals as a background canvas did the job I wanted it to do – and there is everything in these backgrounds too including recycled plaids and stripes, batik, prints from the 1980s and modern black on whites!
You might even notice that not all the star points match perfectly. I sewed my block on my 1911 singer treadle machine. I’m not the best treadler out there, but I give it a good shot.
I loved this block so much that after I sent it off to Quiltmaker I just kept sewing!
In the gallery section of the magazine you will find my Scrap Crystals block in a finished quilt:
No pattern is given in the magazine for the full quilt, but it will be making an appearance in my next book, More Adventures with Leaders & Enders, published by Kansas City Star and due out in Spring 2014!
Please visit Quiltmaker’s Blog, Quilty Pleasures for more goodies and give-aways HERE! All of the other participants of this blog hop are listed on the Quiltmaker blog, so don’t miss out.
If you are new to Quiltville, I hope you’ll stick around and explore a bit! There are a multitude of tabs at the top of the blog to direct you to things like my Free Patterns, Tips & Techniques, Vintage Sewing Machines and to my Quilt-Cam –when I am home and not traveling teaching quilting, I will turn on the live web cam in my studio and you can sew along with me! These episodes are archived on YouTube and are all accessible by the links in the Quilt-Cam tab.
You will also notice a tab called Celtic Solstice! Every year I run a Reader Appreciation Mystery. Celtic Solstice is this year’s online mystery and our introductory post is linked at the bottom of the tab with the yardage requirements, colors and other info to participate in this year’s mystery which starts November 29th! It’s a ton of fun---I hope you’ll play along!
We've also got a very active Facebook community, over 37,000 readers strong! Click the link at the bottom of this post to like our Facebook page and keep up with what we are doing there. Feel free to share photos of your quilts in progress and share with others!
This blog is updated at least twice a day so you will want to keep up with the latest news and adventures of a traveling itinerant quilter. There is always something fun to read in Quiltville!
Now – the good part!
Leave me a comment in the comments section below. If you've made any of my quilts before, tell me something about your favorite!
Remember - your email address MUST be visible in your profile, or in your comment to win. If I have no way to contact you back, I'll have to choose someone else!
The drawing will be open until Sunday, November 17th when I will draw the winners.
Happy Hopping, everyone!

I've been reading your blog for about 5 months now, and I've asked for any of your books for Christmas....I haven't made any of your pattern YET, but I just went shopping at the United Way Garage sale on Saturday for some neutral shirts to use in the Celtic Solstice. Thanks for all the inspiration! di_caughill at hotmail dot com
Bonnie - I love your quilts. I sleep under my Easy Street quilt. Can't wait to start Celtic Solstice. My fabrics are piled on my cutting table. I love Quiltmaker 100 blocks books. So many great ideas. Faith in ME
What a wonderful block. Thanks for the opportunity to win.
I am so looking forward to Celtic Solstice! I love the color scheme. I made Roll Roll Cotton Boll a couple of years ago and I love it!
Scrappy is the best...especially when there are so many nice block patterns to use. Thanks!
Thanks for the chance to win. Love the new block. My favorite colors are blue and green!
I don't know if I have ever made one of your patterns (well, maybe they are in the UFO stage, but we won't talk about that!). But I definitely use your scrap USER's system! What an eye opener it was when I discovered it! Thank you!
I am new to quilting and can't wait to make one of your quilts.
I love all your quilts, and follow you faithfully, thanks for the give away

Bonnie I love your scrappy blocks
Just love your gorgeous scrappy block. As I just love collecting little bits of fabric this block is oh so perfect. The quilt is just heaven. Great inspiration
Ok I posted once on this so if you get two from me I apologize as I was on the link through Facebook previously. I have thoroughly enjoyed the scrap users system and have made several of your patterns. I love following your blog and quilt cam. I think I learn something new each time I watch. I would love the chance to win a copy of 100 blocks. You are a gifted person and I really appreciate all you share. duwaklj@cloudburst9.net thanks Bonnie

cookiehenry@nycap.rr.com
Love your block and would love to win a magazine too. If I don't, I'll be buying one instead to add to to my Quiltmaker 100 Blocks collection. Have them all!!! I have been following your blog for years and really enjoy reading about all your travels. My Orca Bay quilt was made in purples and green and I just love it! Thanks for the chance to win.
I am one of your followers and wake up every morning and check facebook to see your next post. I have made Orca Bay, Easy Street and still working on Lazy Sunday. My favorite Quilt would have to be the Lazy Sunday, I got to work on it with my mother. I would get phone calls asking how to do each step. It was great working on it with her. I am now trying to talk her into doing the new mystery as well!!!! Thank you so much for the giveaway.
I like both the scrappy & the color themed block.
Making one of your quilts is on my bucket list. I love your scrappy ideas very much.
I thought I posted a comment earlier, but, did not see it. Thank you for allowing me the chance to win the book. Sincerely, Angel
More than 800 comments! I'm lucky if I get one or two on my blog every few posts! But I can see why - you share wonderful blocks with all of us. I'm a fairly new follower, sent here by a woman whose husband is a fellow writer at FanStory.com. I don't know her name, as we all write with pseudonyms there, but her husband's first name is Bob ... bet that doesn't narrow it down much, does it? :) Thanks for doing the giveaway ... long odds but always worth a shot at getting a free quilt book.
I tried earlier from my phone to post, but as always it didn't work. Bonnie thank you for sharing so much information with us, and all of the pictures of your travels as you pass your knowledge on to those all over the country/world. You have helped me out a few times with finding fabric and with a treadle that I rescued. I read your blogs every time you post. Again THANK YOU for what you share with all of us.
Cute, cute block. I'd really like to win one of these issues.
I am working on your Texas Braid. I add fabric from my projects as I work on them, some quilts and some projects for my grandchildren. I made a block similar to yours for my sons baby quilt 36 years ago. The blocks were 9 inches hand pieces and hand quilted. Lindasquilting@yahoo.com
I had the pleasure of listening to you lecture at a local (northern va) guild. You are so fantastic, that I will see you in the spring at smith mt. va! and I cannot wait! I am just getting up my courage to try your new mystery quilt at the end of this month! It takes courage for me to do things like that! Good luck and thanks for all you do. (new blocks are an inspiration, even if I just try one or two... now tell me what to do with all these 'orphan blocks!"
Can't wait to have time to finish my Alaska Scrap Crystals quilt. I am still working on Red and Black Scrappy Mountain Majesties, Smith Mountain Morning and Jamestown landing. Love them all. Would love a copy of this book, signed or not. It is still from our Bonnie!!! Love ya, still sending prayers to All y'all. Ramona from Maine sewnsew@live.com
(Jumping up & down) ME ME ME!! I would LOVE to have the book!! I'm working hard to deal with bins of scraps according to The Scrap Users System before starting on any particular quilt. Meanwhile, I'm also sewing bonus units as I finish up other things. Thank you for such scrappy inspiration!
This is the first quilt blog tour i have ever done i like finding all the quilt websites yeah
Would love to have the book! I love free patterns. I've made your Happy Scrappy Houses and your Basketweave String...my grandson grabbed up the basketweave and took it home for his bed. He loves it. (He's 13!)
I haven't made any of your quilts yet but I have a long list waiting in the wings -- really, REALLY like Smith Mountain Morning! :-)
it would be grand to win a copy of this 100 block mag...been trying for a long time to figure out how to enter any of the give aways..hope this one goes through ...Kris F...;-)
I love yr blog, I'll join in the mystery along with all the others, this should be fun
Do not know if I was able to get through or not. You are just so popular. Do what you have to do to keep us all in line!
SUBEE XOXOXOX
Thank you for the chance to win, Bonnie! This quilt will definitely be on my list of 2014 must do's!
Thanks for another chance at a freebie. I'm new to your blog and this Celtic Soltice will be my first B.H. quilt.
Hi Bonnie, I would love to win... I love your style of quilting.
I really like your block. It will work very nice with some mini charms I have. Thanks!
I've made several of your quilts. My favorite is Orange Crush. I love the combination of the orange, green and blue I used for the border. Thanks for another great block!
This would be so much fun! I love your block and the quilt.
Your Celtic mystery quilt will be my first!
Scrappy is my thing, also
Love your block!!! I am pretty new to quilting, only about 6 months. I am currently on number 12. 6 of them are queen size. I have been busy and totally addicted. I want to make a scrappy quilt (building up my scrap stash). I love the way your scrap quilts look!! Thanks for a chance to win.
Hi Bonnie! Love your blog and all the wonderful tips you share! I'm new to quilting and working on my fabric stash so I can make one of your quilts.
My goodness! I am behind in getting to this. I'd love to win one of these--thank you for your generosity! Love your scrap quilting--so good for me!
Hey Bonnie; I've made 2 spiderweb quilts, the first one was for valentines day and the other was for saint patricks day, both were made this year. Thanks for the giveaway.

NICE BLOG!!!
Woo Hoo, this is fun! I am glad you are part of the blog-hop! I hope I win something this time!
I love the blue and green version, they are my favorite colors. All your patterns are great. The largest one I have tackled is a Star Struck in a king size. Thanks for all you share.

Love this book and your pattern is lovely........Thank you for your blog I enjoy it very much.
Would love to win a copy of Vol. 8; thanks for the opportunity. I love reading your blog and your quilting style.

I love scrappy quilts and would love to win this book as I want to make a scrappy quilt with different blocks to really mix it up.
Bonnie-
LOVE your website and your books. I am currently working on two of your designs - waiting to start a third - just can't stop!
You have many fans - but I hope you pick me!
Love, love, love scrap quilts!! Thank you for all of the inspiration/
I love Quiltville! Great blog, great patterns and tutorials, lots of wonderful info, love quiltcam and so many wonderful ideas. I love scrap quilting! My very first quilt was a table topper trip around the world, after that I was hooked. I'd love to win the newest edition of 100 blocks!
Nice giveaway, thanks
Thanks for the chance to win!! I just love using the scrap saver method!! Was at a quilt retreat this past weekend and made three small wall hangings just from the scrap table. Took longer than having those pieces all cut and ready in their little (ok not so little) totes.
I have made several of your quilts. Sisters Choice (is my favorite as there are so many memories) as a block exchange with my sisters, my mother and her sister. Scrappy Mountains(I was in your class), Orca Bay, Roll, Roll Cotton Boll, Easy Street, Maverick Stars(was a baby quilt) and most recently Ocean Waves. My piecing has totally transformed with leaders & enders.
You are such an inspiration! I follow your blog and will be participating in the Celtic Solstice mystery. Keep up the good work. cknapp3626@sbcglobal.net
I would love a copy. I'm so happy to have found you. I'm looking forward to the day I get to meet you ... somewhere across this country! jgrinaz@gmail.com
Send me the magazine!
Send me the magazine!
I'm always nervous about starting something scrappy, but I love it when it's completed. Aren't I silly. Scrap on Sister!
Love your blog, and your giveaways. great block.
Love your block Bonnie, you have inspired me to start scapping
I love your block and the quilt is just stunning to say the least...I have to make this block!!!!
I love scrap quilts. There's something very authentic about them. XX OO
Thank you for a chance to win this magazine....love what you do and I'm amazed at how beautiful your scrappy quilts turn out. You've taught me to love "scrappy" and now I have bins of scraps that I would normally throw away!
Hi Bonnie!
Love the quilt block and the quilt!
I have made Orca Bay and Easy Street mystery quilts and loved them both. Quilting has been on hold lately in my life as I finish the last semester of college doing my student teaching. My machine and scraps are waiting patiently for me to come back and play with them after December 14. I would love to have a new book of patterns to play with too!
thanks for all you do.
Meg in snowy Michigan
I am making a Smith Mountain Morning, trying to get it done before Celtic Solstice starts! Ready for the inner border and may be finished in time! Debbie in WV
Thanks for all your helpful ideas. I will have to explore your blog:)
I've been a long time follower of the blog and even though I haven't made any of your mystery quilts before I do have the fabric ready to go for Celtic Solstice. I love your block for this edition of the 100 blocks but I love all your blocks.
What a wonderfully scrappy block! I love stars.
Love your crystal stars! Blues and greens are my favorite colors to work with. : )
Bonnie, I'd love to get a copy. Your block is really nice. A good use for all those little hsts I'm making. I'm putting last touches on my Lazy Sunday, to get ready for the solstice!
I love your block. What a clever way to use up those triangles. Your completed quilt is awesome. I love the colour choice. I am in the process of putting my 'Easy Stree' quilt together. It is going to be a Christmas gift for my son and daughter in law. I am looking forward to seeing this years mystery at the end of the month. Thank you for all your hard work for us fellow patch workers. Also I appreciate your giving me the opportunity to win this great publication
Love your tannenbaum mug rug...made a great miniature quilt for the tree.....just the right size......have a great xmas....
Thank you for the chance to win! I have been admiring your quilts, and am trying to get my courage up to try one! I have signed up for Celtic Soltice and can't wait to see what is to come!
I've got lots of plans and not so much time, but I'm a scrapaholic and love everything you do. I currently have Double Delight, your Quiltville Mystery from 2008 in the works.
I came across your blog while looking for some ideas for a scrap quilt. Thanks for all the inspiration!
I haven't made any of your quilts yet. I'm still in the scrap collecting phase! :P Love the look of your Majestic Mountain quilt so that will probably be first on my list!
Scrap quilts are awesome! Love variety!
Just finished gathering fabric for celtic solstice; need to put label on Easy Street as it is a Christmas present and then I'll be ready to start.
Love everything you do ! I started your smoky mountain stars ..... and really need to finish it. Hurray for another 100 blocks! Thank you Janita
Oi Bonnie, obrigada por me aceitar no grupo! Tenho olhado o seu blog e estou adorando seus trabalhos. Mas ainda estou começando a fazer trabalhos com retalhos e tenho adorado os blocos que você tem postado. Estou começando agora nesta arte, pois fazia muito trabalhos em madeira e ponto cruz e adoro todo tipo de artesanato. Quando eu fiz o primeiro trabalho eu fiz um projeto da Annie e adorei, agora estou com uma professora e estou amando e assim que fizer o primeiro trabalho eu posto para você ver e me dizer o que achou. Parabéns pelos lindos trabalhos
Thank-you for offering this giveaway! I love scrappy quilts and you have some great patterns for them. I have collected many of your patterns, and have 2 in progress...Fourth of July and Playing with Jacks....Thank-you for all you do and share!
Thanks for having a give-a-way. I love quilt cam. Keeps me motivated.
Thanks for all the hints, tips, freebie patterns ang encouragement you give us every day. While your block looks great, the finished quilt is fabulous. Thank you!
I am currently working on 3 leaders and enders. Thank you Bonnie for all your hard work.
I would love one of the books! My favorite is not a quilt, but rather a class I took with you at a church Near Philadelphia. We made wonky stars and free-hand letters. Not only was it fun, but it liberated my good friend (Nancy) and sent her off into a world of wild color, crazy piecing and all kinds of new quilting adventures.
I like this scrappy block made into the full size quilt.
Would love to win this magazine - do I get an extra lifetime to make all the quilts?
YEARS ago, I taught a group of beginner quilters, using your Scrappy Mountain Majesties. (I emailed you for permission btw) That was back in California. Then recently I meet you in person in North Little Rock, Arkansas I think, at QUEST quilters? I wish I could have stayed for the workshop!
I AM planning on trying the Celtic Solstice quilt project to. I guess I LIKE your stuff! lol
Thanks for having such a fun give-a-way and don't worry about having to do the verification for commenting thing. This blog stuff is a LOT of work! hugs and thanks!
I am fond of many of your quilts but particularly like the blue and green one above. I only discovered you a few weeks ago. Look forward to making one of your quilts with my daughter, perhaps this winter.
Great block. I have not made any of your quilts yet but I am ever hopeful that I will get to all of them some day
You were in my bookmarks but it was such a bummer when my computer died. I can't find where I backed up my bookmarks, I have a lot of quilts "in progress". I get excited about the next project or I have to put away the current project because company is coming. ll_gee(at)hotmail
Getting excited for Celtic Solstice, busy gathering up fabrics. Love your free patterns.
Such a fun block! Love the scrappy look to it. Thank you, Bonnie for inspiring us all!
So cool, it really looks like crystals and I lover your colour choice
I would love to win the magazine. I have you and at least one other friend with a block in this issue. Thanks for making up the patterns.
Oh! I love the scrappy blocks. I really don't mind "too" much the verification bots.
Hugs,
Thanks for all the tips on keeping the spamers away. Love what you continue to do for quilting and me.
Gweneth
Love what I've seen about this book so far. Can hardly wait to buy or win a copy!
Love, Love, LOVE it!
No worries about the Word Verification with me. I'm used to it on other Blogs. I think it keeps some from Commenting, but I don't get as many as you in a year. I love your block made with the Bonus Triangles! I don't know how you snuck in the time to make a whole quilt! Put my name in for the Drawing. I would love to win this issue.
Thanks for a chance to win the block book. It's great and I love your blocks with bonus triangles.
Would love to win the new 100 blocks. Neat scrap block you created,
Thanks, for everything you do to keep everything fair, and trying to give everyone a chance to enter the giveaways. Hope this post works have done everything that has been suggested. Thanks again Tish mtish44@yahoo.com

Love your scrappy quilts! I'd love to win a copy of 100 Blocks!
Love the quilt - scraps can be very useful. Love your work.
Love all the different patterns you have done. Haven't tried a scrappy quilt but have enough pieces to make several

Hi Bonnie, thank you for all you show and teach us. I would love to win the book to add to my collection. I have been working on my scrap saving system according to Bonnie. I am making a scrappy spider web quilt, will try to post a picture when I have completed it.

Can't wait to get started.

Hi Bonnie,
I pieced my first quilt top in September of 2012. I am totally addicted. I have pieced and quilted(by machine) 7 quilts since that time(four of these were lap quilts). I found your blog about a month ago and have already watched all the archived quilt cams. I finally got to see one partially live. I subscribed so that I can be notified when you will have the next one. I read your directions on the leaders and enders and am so excited about doing that. I am working on a quilt for my daughter for Christmas and started making leaders and enders. I already have quit a few. I can't wait to make a scrappy quilt using one of your patterns. Haven't decided which one, will depend on what kind of bonus squares I end up with. Thank you for sharing your quilting life with all of us. I think that I am in love with scrappy now. I would love to win the 100 block addition. Have a great week and hope that I will be able to join the next quilt cam. thank you for sharing all of your creative genius. beckyaddis@yahoo.com
I have all my fabrics assembled ready for my first mystery with you coming up on the 29th. Can't wait for that first clue. Have started doing the leaders and enders technique already while I am sewing other blocks. Great idea! Would love to win the book!!!
I hope I am not to late for this. I worked a 12 hour shift today. Love watching you sew.
apnurse236@gmail,com
Love this block, I've never made a scrappy quilt, but this one tempts me to try it.
Love it! Thanks for all you do!
I'm looking forward to the mystery quilt ,I have never done one before. I have decided to make the quilt you made for your brother, I'm sure I will be making others as well. Thanks for your patterns and time you put in on the cam. :)
Thanks for the chance to win the magazine. I love scrappy quilts more than anything and used your directions to make the Scrappy Trip quilt. I just started following you on FB last year. And now I am following your blog so I am looking forward to seeing more of your quilts. Thanks again.
I'm a scrapper too.
I have used your tutorials for inspiration for scrap quilts.
I love designs and blocks that can be changed to make a whole new design.
Debbie
I am a scrap-a-holic. I have made several of your quilts, but my favorite one was Jarred takes a Wife. I love you books too! Thanks for doing a giveaway! I hope that I win!! LOL
Love the block! Thanks for a chance to win and thanks for all you do for us! So far I made a king size Chunky Churndash and I'm making a Happily Scrappily Irish Chain as a leader/ender project. I might just have to join in the Celtic Solstice fun too! :)
Love your block, especially in the blue and green! Thank you for the opportunity to win!
I love this block!! I'm now in the process of collecting fabric to make the Celtic Solstice!! I can't wait.

I love your block, scrappy always catches my eye. Thanks! B
I'm working on my first leaders and enders project...4 patches for now. I love seeing the blocks build up while I'm working on other things. I love your scrappy block, and the quilt. Thanks for the giveaway.
I have not made one of your quilts before but I definitely would like to make this block as I have been saving all my bonus triangles and this would be perfect for them.
Recently stumbled across your blog and I'm hooked! I've never participated in a mystery quilt before and can't wait till Nov 29. Paint chips have been picked up and the stash sorted through. I'm ready to follow along. Thank you for the opportunity to win a copy of the magazine.
I love scrappy quilting I enjoy your web site this is a great block. Glenda Bolton
Hi Bonnie,
Looking forward to your pattern in vol 8-thanks for the chance to win a copy.
I'm still working on Orca Bay :) and agonizing over what to use for backing.
I don't see my comment from earlier today d.rideough@gmail.com
Your block is wonderful as always. I haven't found anything that you have done that I don't like. My bucket list of quilts to make is way over 75% of your patterns. Right now I am working on 3 different ones and everytime I look on your site I find more. I hope I live a very long time.
I have made a couple traditional patterns that I found on your site, my favorite being Depression Block. I intend to make a quilt of it someday, but have so many more colors than neutrals. I LOVE your leaders-and-enders principle and using bonus triangles. clairealex @ gmail . com
It's is definitely one of the biggest giveaway dive ever entered! I follow your blog because I love scrappy quilts!
Please enter me! Love your blog
Always thinking of everyone else....you are one special lady. So glad I'm a quilter.....quilters are sew special. Would love a chance to win. Thanks for all that you do for all of us. Scrap on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love your quilts. One of my favourites that I have made is a Lime Green Star Struck, I started it two years ago while waiting for your Orca Bay to get under way.
My first scrap quilt was a double Irish chain. I used your instructions and it came together beautifully. I love all you do to promote quilting and your common sense approach. Thanks for quilt cam too, it is so nice to sew along with you.
I love your patterns as I can use up my tailoring scraps to which I have access. I will try and make this block for my BOM which I am doing for my self. Thank you.
I thought I commented early this morning but I didn't get the spam killer..so now I'm not sure. My first BH quilt was Easy Street..then I made a baby Smith Mountain Morning, a full Virginia Bound, Cactus Punch and started cutting out pieces for Star Gazing last night. My goal is to use my kids clothes that I have been saving in each quilt and shop my stash. I hope by the time all of this adventure is over..everyone has a quilt with memories and I have an empty stash. Or close to it. =) thanks Bonnie!
Bonnie, All of your quilts sparkle! Thank you for the chance to win the book.

I just found your blog (and am relatively new to quilting) so I haven't made one of your quilts yet! But I am going to go have a "look around" your blog, as I need some inspiration right now (I have quilters block!)
I love your block! Thanks for a chance to win.
Love your block! I'm a newbie quilter, so I haven't had a chance to participate in one of your quilts yet. Someday ... Thanks for the chance ~ fingers crossed!
Can life get any better, free give aways all about quilting. I'm in heaven.
I would love to win this. I love your block.
Wow Bonnie - what an awesome giveaway -- I'm new to your quilt patterns so I haven't made anything yet but would LOVE to. Thanks much! Karen
LOVE these books and have collected them all ... can't wait for the new issue to come out and I'll be in line to get one on day of release ... unless, of course, I WIN one of these copies ... LOL Linda ;-)
Just love all your scrap quilts and have made 3 already and I am fairly new at your blog. Can't thank you enough for your well written patterns and your help with color selection. This gives newer quilters confidence to try your patterns. Can't wait to see the new Block Book. Marilyn bsholtis@sc.rr.com
I have just received your first two books and am thrilled with them - as is my husband. We are really looking forward to working on your mystery quilt this year as well. Thank you so much for all you do for us quilters!
I just love these books and even more now that EQ is adding them. You have really inspired me to get to work and to be more efficient about it. You are an awesome asset to our quilting world and sisterhood. I am working on the boxy stars and love it. It will be a gift for a dear friend that is moving away. Hugs and thank you so much for all that you do :)
I have recently started following you on FB and am in love with all of your scrap quilts and shortcuts to make them. I would like to win this book so I could play with the blocks like you have to make scrap quilts
Thanks
