We Have Winners!
Wow! Did you find all those letters and now you’re ready to make an alphabet quilt? I hope you’ve at least saved them to your computer or printed them out, because chances are someday you’ll want them. If you’re like me, you’ll spend days looking for where you stashed them, and of course you won’t be able to find them. CAREFULLY put them away where you won’t forget, then tie a string around your finger. :>) Today we’re announcing winners on our blogs, so be sure and hop over and visit each designer. Someone’s going to get lucky and it could be you! Here’s the blog list: FEBRUARY 17… American…

Moda Blog Hop!

Welcome to our new look
I’ve done it! I spent the weekend updating my blog. I know it will take a while to figure out where everything is. It’s kind of like moving into a new house; I’ve got the same old furniture, it’s just arranged differently. Be sure and visit the menu bar at the top because you’ll find lots of changes that I hope you like! I’m excited that the comment form is finally at the bottom of the blog post! Silly, I know, but now you don’t have to search for it when you feel like leaving a comment. And, if you want to email me a question, or tell me something…

I stopped by Random.org to let them pick a winner for the lovely “S is for Stitch” book. They do things in such “randomness”, they make it easy to pick someone.
