 BlockLotto - January 2010 - Tic Tac Toe

The directions were posted January 1st - along with links to photos of example blocks already completed.

It took so much time for me to get set up and to get my quilting equipment and the sewing machine set up.

I also had to figure out how to get pictures so they could be posted to the site. Here is the link to my first posting of blocks for the blocklotto (Jan 24 10)

A few days later I posted my final three blocks (Jan 27 10)

Part of the trouble was my coding from 1989 of putting a safety pin in the fabric if it was washed and tested to be color safe had slipped my mind - so I was soaking fabric in vinegar and then washing it to be sure it wouldn't bleed. The kitchen looked like a science experiment!
