Showing, Sharing and Winning!

Yesterday, after reading my post on the Puzzle Tavern block,  Paula, sent me this picture of her Anita’s Arrowhead Quilt!

Alex's quilt 010

Paula made this beauty for her Grandson, Alex!  Don’t you wish ALL recipients of quilts looked this happy and pleased!  You done good, Grandma!!

Now you are probably scratching your head wondering why Paula would send me a picture of her Anita’s Arrowhead quilt when I wrote about the Tavern Puzzle Quilt.  It’s because they are basically the same block except for the size.  Paula’s block finishes at 8 1/2” and the Tavern Puzzle Block finishes at 12 1/2”.  Both use the same technique!

You can see BOTH patterns on yesterday’s post!  I slipped in a link to the FREE pattern for Anita’s Arrowhead quilt…so go HERE to download!  Got to love FREE Patterns!

Thanks so much for Showing and Sharing, Paula!  Now our Readers have two sized blocks to pick from!  And now they can see what this quilt looks like using only two fabrics!  Gorgeous!  And we all got see how happy you made your grandson! Now THAT’S why we quilt!

Time to move on to my GIVE AWAY…and find out who won that bundle of wool..and a couple of surprises! The Random Generator (in this case my husband) picked number 28…which makes pbee our winner!  Congratulations pbee!!  I will be emailing you shortly to get your snail’s mail address!

Have a great Saturday and thanks for stopping by!~P

  1. Congrats to pbee.
    Thanks for sharing my quilt Paulette. You would have thought I gave him a million bucks when I gave him that quilt. What looks white is actually a Stonehedge fabric in a mossy green. Bet you can't guess his favorite color.LOL!
