I Won! I Won! :-)



Bingo~Bonnie hosts the biggest and best FQ bingo game on the HGTV quilting message board. This year I knew I was going to be out of a town during the game, so I didn't sign-up, but a Special Someone sent in 5 FQ's for me! Well I played those 5 cards and just had a ball! I wasn't anywhere near winning anything when I went out of town, so I didn't even worry while gone. When I got back, the game heated up. I went for almost a week needing just one more number on one card... and the rest of my cards were quickly catching up! The weekend was torture! because she didn't call any numbers on Sunday. I was sure someone would win on Monday... but no one did! And on Tuesday it was getting a little painful to even check the board, I was sure someone would be calling bingo... and someone did! Me! :-) Along with about 7 other ladies! LOL Since she had divided us into 4 groups, it meant there were 2 winners in each group. My 'take' was 286 of a record 2332 FQ's! They arrived yesterday, and boy have I been having some fun!! I still have to pinch myself~ I can't believe I won and I have the proof right here! LOL! :-) Just look at all these FQ's! There are definitely a few quilts in my future~~ :-)
Have a happy evening!

Thanks for the free PR, crazy'boutquilts!!! :) I'm sure we will see an increase in the HGTV quilters membership when it comes time for our 4th annual Fat Quarter Bingo game next year :) Which will be grrrrr-great!

I can't wait to see what these FQ babies grow up to be one day! Thanks for the photos!!

Love from Texas! ~bonnie

Who knew that having a Halloween Hop last week would bring the chilly weather?! We had rain, wind--- the power even went out for a few hours...
