Congratulations - We have winners!

I want to thank each and every one of you for stopping by and visiting my blog during the Glorious Autumn Block Party! I hope you enjoyed it and I know you have lots of lovely blocks from all the  45 different designers who participated. Now with these blocks, you can choose to make a quilt or placemat or even a Kennel Quilt. Yes, the shelters in the northeast affected by Hurricane Sandy in late October still need our help! Please consider helping with this effort. If you do, please send me a picture of your quilts and I will feature them on my blog!

For all the information you can go to the The Quilt Pattern Magazine and download free quilt patterns. The quilts are 12" x 18" and are very easy to make. Why don't you consider making one in someone's honor for a "purrfect" Christmas gift. Take a picture and add it to a card, then send your quilt to one of the shelters on the list!

If you don't have time to make a quilt, you can always give a monetary donation to Petfinderfoundation.com
Whatever you choose, remember the animals need and will continue to need our help in the long recovery effort. Thank you.

Now I know you are all waiting to see who won. The drawing was done by Random.org and the winners are:

Rachelle - wins the subscription to The Quilt Pattern Magazine.

Susan  - wins the pattern - Denny's Hopscotch Quilt.

Jenelle - wins the three fat quarters.

To the winners, if you have not already contacted me with your information, please do, so I may send you your gifts. 

Congratulations again and I wish everyone the Happiest of Holidays! 

Merry Christmas!
