And the winners are....

I had to bribe tractor-boy with a bag of 'wiggly worms' to do the drawing, but as he can't read yet he was the most objective LOL. Once we got started he really got into it and enjoyed picking the little pieces of paper to choose the winners.
I was just sorry I only had 4 things to give away for my 100th post. I would have loved to be able to send something to everyone who commented (maybe next time!) Here are the results:

The winner of the bag is...

Tum ti tum ti tum (that was sort of a drum roll....)
Cathi! (If I'd known you were going to win Cathi, I would have mailed it with your fabric LOL)

The three chilli keyring winners are:

Die vliegende koe


Lynda


and Juliann (Juliann, I know you didn't want to be in the drawing, but I put everyone in so you're a winner and that's that LOL.)


Thank you all for your comments. Would the winners please email me your snail mail address if I don't have it already and I'll try and mail these off early next week (postal strike willing!)

Here are my last Focus fabric blocks. No more for me now for a bit as I have 5 quilts to bind! And another one at the Longarmer that I need to pick up next week. Oh, that I knew how to do proper binding, I may get desperate and do my "cheater's" version - again!! At least it's a quick method if not so pretty.
Anyhow, here is A Dandy...

And here is Antique Tile (all blocks from Quilterscache again)


Tomorrow we are having a 'Farm party' for the boys as it's Toby's 1st birthday tomorrow. My baby will be one, wish he'd grow up a bit slower!!!
Here he is at a few weeks old (October 2006)

And here they both are on a quilt made by my friend Ria in Granny's garden in Cape Town (around about March 2007)

The swap exchange

Firstly thank you to Cathi who sent me these yummy scrummy and delicious rose prints for my hexagon project that I do when I'm home in South Africa. They are delectable and shall all be put to good use. Thanks Cathi!



Here's me trying to find time to photograph them in the birthday aftermath of boxes...



I've managed to make a few swap blocks for the BlockBuddySwaps Focus fabric swap. The focus fabric being the 'Forest Fire' batik... Here is 'The Dandy' (all blocks in this swap are from Quilterscache)



And here is my adapted version of 'Patience corners'...
