February 1st and a Giveaway

Well it is February 1st and that means a new "To Do" list.


Yep you are seeing right.  I already have one BOM crossed off my list.  Pat Sloan posted the February block yesterday morning and I got it done last night.


This is the second block for the Globetrotting BOM.  We left Washington DC and landed in Venice, Italy.  The blocks now are all 10" finished.
This is the position of this block in the quilt.  I used the same fabric in the center as I did in the large HST in the center block.
Lori posted part 2 of Midwinter Blues.  I have the pieces all cut out but only had time yesterday to sew one of the half blocks.

I love the way this is looking.  I chose mostly gray/blue fabrics.  Can't wait for part 3.

 Now let's see....there was something else I wanted to mention.
A Giveaway...

As I said the other day February holds a few special dates for me.  The first giveaway will celebrate the anniversary of my blog.  3 Years.  (And they said it wouldn't last).  Here is what I am giving away, seeing I bought 2 copies of this book.


I must have really wanted this book.  

 Here are the guidelines.

 For one chance to win comment that you are a follower and let me know how you follow.  Example: Bloglovin, Google, Email.

 For a second chance, blog about this giveaway and leave a comment letting me know you did.

It is that easy.  You have until Friday to enter.  A winner will be chosen on Saturday morning.

 Thanks for stopping buy and have a great weekend.  It is snowing again here so I will be spending the weekend staying warm and sewing.

 Hugs, Cathy

    I just had to say that I really like your Midwinter Blues progress. I don't have any of my setting triangles made yet, but yours makes me want to get going on them.
    Happy anniversaries! : )
