Winner! Winner! Chicken Dinner!






I made these awesome basket blocks this weekend. The patterns are/were free at Legends & Lace. You can find them under Baskets Galore. I won't mince words- they are challenging blocks!

And I got most of the fabric to make them from this big box of scraps I won from 
Cyndi at Busy Thimble blog. I had so much fun choosing fabrics from this. Thank you again Cyndi!!
 And I won this book from Jo of Jo's Country Junction. I love that this is pocket size!
 Look at the wonderful information at my fingertips! It is available from Landauer Publishing. I think you may be able to get it as a free download if you sign up to get their newsletter!
Now we are all winners! Have a fantastic week.

    That little book looks very handy to have--pocket size is a nice feature.

  8. Gee, I like the basket blocks. I have been saving the patterns but looks like I may have missed one or maybe I saved it and didn't print it out. For challenging basket blocks, you did well. And isn't it fun playing with someone else's scraps. I won a box full from Cheri Saffiote-Payne, and am still playing with them.

  9. Did you really say winner, winner chicken dinner? LOL Looks like some good wins for you. Other people's scraps are so much fun to play in aren't they? I might have to look for that little pocket guide.
    Love your blocks. Right now all I can handle is simple.
    Happy Thanksgiving
