Ready for B-I-N-G-O!

Hello!  :)

Hope you're having a good weekend! I am! I'm getting a lot of sewing done. Yea!  :)  Today I actually worked on 3 different projects I have going on. I'll share one of them with you now.

Do you remember that I said I'll be participating in the "May  for Me"? Part of the "May for Me" is a game of B-I-N-G-O.

The other day I gathered my fabrics together to make the card.

I managed to cut and sew the squares together on Thursday. Then I had to decide on how I wanted to do the lettering. I thought about embroidering it. Then I decided to just applique the letters. This is what I came up with.

I'm really happy with how it came out.  :)  I think the black polka dot really sets it off nicely. I added the colored blocks below the letters to set of the columns. I really think it adds a lot to it. What do you think?

Until next time . . .

I'm Going to Play B-I-N-G-O!

Hello!  :)

I've been seeing a lot of B-I-N-G-O cards around blogland lately. Have you? At first I just kept passing them over but then my curiosity got the better of me. I had to investigate and find out what was going on. What did I find out? Well . . . It all has to do with . . .

Marcia over at Marcia's Crafty Sewing & Quilting Blog is sponsoring a "May for Me Celebration". Basically it's all about taking time for yourself (May for Me!). You can go here to find out all the information. Her blogger friend, Tonya at Hillbilly Handiworks hosted it with her last year and will also be hosting it this year along with Vrooman's Quilts and Lily Pad Quilting. B-I-N-G-O is part of the May for Me.

You can go here to Hillbilly Handiworks to find out all the info on playing B-I-N-G-O. There you can find all the rules, prizes, a B-I-N-G-O card tutorial and even some FAQ's. After I found out what all this was all about of course I had to participate!  :)

Luck has it that I just received 112 "I-SPY" charm blocks last week as part of two swaps I participated in. Here they are with some of my favorites at the top . . .

Today I went through them and picked out the squares I want to use to make my B-I-N-G-O card.

Now all I have to do is cut them up and sew them all together then I'll be ready to play B-I-N-G-O along with the rest of you!  :)  So are you going to play with me?


Until next time . . .
