| You are so lucky!!!! I really needed those sno globes last year ~lol~ lucky girl! You will be able to make a few quilts with your winnings. Hoffman has a really classy free Sno globe quilt pattern. I made up my own pattern & layout when I made my quirky Snoglobe quilt for my niece's Christmas present. I hand embroidered snowflakes in the globe part (thank you again Teresa for showing me how!) and I added additional wool batting behind the globe part to poof out the round globe - trapunto. I am envious of your winnings! So much you can do with these blocks. I can't wait to see what you make. They are fun to work with. Another Sno globe quilt is definitely in my future.

| Congratulations. What a nice assortment. You will be able to make something wonderful with those. And, there's still time before the next Christmas. |

| I am sure not into Christmas kitsch, and aside from a tree with natural elements on it, and a creche on the mantle seldom decorate.............but I'd make a huge exception for a quilt made with those blocks! That's about the cutest Christmas blocks I've ever seen. Very creative. Congrats! Hey 15 FQs are noting to sneeze at either. |
|
| WOW! What a great win. The snow globes a wonderful and just the right time of year to begin thinking of something to used them in. You must be excited. I agree 15 FQ would make my heart beat faster.lol. Congratulations and enjoy. |

| What great winnings! How fun for you. It makes my little bag of Marimekko scraps seem kind of puny. But I'll take what I can get. Congratulations. Lois |
|
| Congrats!! When you're hot you're hot!! I love the snowglobes thay will make a good size quilt. Love yours Marsha!!! |
|
| I am going to have so much fun with the Snow Globes! Marcia your snow globe quilt is lovely! The exciting thing about winning the FQs is that I am making a quilt for the family shelter that my sister works at to be used as a raffle quilt and .....you guessed it.....it is all florals! I don't often win anything at our guild meetings but even a single FQ in the membership draw is exciting. Mary |
