This is what you've all been waiting for ...

The names of the Christmas Quiltalong winners.

I'm sorry it's taken me so long to post the names, but here they are finally.  Both Grand Prize winners and the quiz winner were all drawn using Random.org, but I haven't shown the screen prints this time.  I have saved them on my computer if anyone wants to see them.

I put your name into the draw once for each time you took part in a Christmas Quiltalong Day for one of the grand prizes, and so, without further ado,

the person who won this lovely little box by Dave at Quiltboxes, is number 54 Pattilou of Pattilous Quilts

The lucky person who won tthis Lollipop kit so generously donated by Sharon at Daisy Cottage Quilting,  is  number 38, Elizabeth from Sand and Sunshine







The winner of the quiz this month, which was more difficult than previous quizzes, is Janet from Caribou Crossing and I have awarded the Brain Teaser prize to Ann J, who sent me an electronic Christmas card with the answer, which I thought was very clever, and great fun.

Finally, because this is my party, so I'm allowed to do these things, I decided to award one additional prize, just for making me laugh, which goes to Sewali, for her answer to the quiz question  "In the Ukraine, what does it mean when you find a spiders web in the house on Christmas morning ?"  Sewali's answer was: "someone spent too much time quilting and didn't do the housework."

Please would the winners contact me with your addresses?

Thank you everyone who joined in with the Christmas Quiltalong this year. I've had a lot of fun, and I hope you have too.  Don't forget that Cathi and I are going to hold Quiltalong days evvery month next year, so keep checking back on our blogs for more information.

I promised you some exciting news a couple of days ago, so here it is.  SewCalGal has offered to sponsor a competition for all the Quiltalongers. I will give all the details next week, but wanted to share this news with you all now, isn't it great?  Thanks so much SewCalGal.
