32 pins on our first day... Blog HOP begins, Bowls with Borders begins NOW!



Have you seen the over 20+ different set of bowls OMG?
Good Day, we are glad to SEE you are with us....
32 pins for our first DAY....wow..

It all started with making a gift for a sweet friend
and sharing that gift on my other blog ( with my final posting)
and many asking me where it came from.
I shared the link.... to Regina's pattern.

Each time I shared another stack, another flood of
emails came in..."where did you get that?"

 Flash to today...a blog hop came about..

 165 ladies who made these bowls...
will be sharing what their bowls look like..

 That I am pretty excited about..
Their BOWLS according to
their selections of fabrics, their appliques
each one will
be totally different...
I have not seen but one completed creation.
I will be as surprised as you...

 See what one share of links from an inquiry about paper piecing
 from  Sharon at Vroomans quilts did?
See what one person who knows how 
to make time did ? ( hey, that is me lol)

 And here we are....
CAROL from just quilt
is our  fabulous bring in the LIGHT cheerleader for this event..
 She deserves many cheers pulling
off the LARGEST  blog hop...
I think I can say that !!!
in all of our QUILT WORLD
This is the BIGGEST blog hop
EVER SEEN.
