I was at my quilting group last week when I purchased some raffle tickets, and imagine my surprise when someone rang me the next day to let me know that I had won second prize! This is my lap quilt and a bottle of wine as well!
Pretty cat fabric
Which reminds me of my lucky streak before we left for our vacation – our quilting group has a monthly competition. You purchase a pattern for 50 cents and the corresponding fabric which has all been pre-cut. Sew it up, bring it back and you are in the draw to win approximately 25 blocks. The other blocks are used to make a quilt for a charity. I won these blocks two weeks running!
So now I have to make the quilts. I will donate one to a charity for sure – the other one I will make for my mother-in-law. Time to get myself organised. Hopefully will have some finished quilts to show in the next month or so.

Congratulations on winning a prize! The only time I can remember winning something in a raffle was nearly forty years ago. I walked into a supermarket on the day it opened and was given a ticket as I passed through the door. A little later, my number was called. (I still remember it was number 33.) I wondered if I was going to get the vacation to Hawaii. In fact, I won an electric carving knife. Still, my mother was pleased. I believe she still uses it occasionally. 🙂

Thanks for that. It’s always nice when you have the lucky ticket. That must be some knife that you won, still working after all this time!

That’s true! Not bad for one of the minor prizes, I guess. 🙂
