There is a solution, actually a couple. One is to make a quilt. Seems logical, but we sometimes lose interest and can't seem to take that step. The other solution and a very good solution at that, let some one adopt them!
Cynthia @Quilting Is More Fun Than Housework has her Fall 2016 Fall Quilty Orphan Adoption Event happening right now!! It seems like the perfect time to offer up a couple stacks, don't you think?!
You can check out what others are putting up for adoption by clicking here: Quilty Orphan Adoption. The rules are simple:
The blocks must be free. Define the criteria. Shipping, blocks used in a charity quilt, how you will selected the winner and how long the adoption will last.
I'll show you what I have first and at the end I'll give the details for adopting the blocks!
First up is a stack of 22 ~ 12" Plus Blocks. I've had them far to long and it's time they get the love they deserve! They are a rainbow delight that would make a gorgeous quilt!
Polaroid Blocks! Cute as can be...look at that Ninja! The blocks are 3 1/2" x 4" and there are a total of 23.
If anyone is interested in either batch of blocks, my criteria is very simple:
- The blocks are free.
- I'll pay shipping anywhere in the US.
- You can use the blocks anyway you want.
- Leave a comment telling me if you would like the Plus or Polaroid (or both).
- I'll use the Random Number Generator to pick a winner on Monday (Sept. 19th)
Make me happy...ask for these blocks...make them happy...make a quilt!
Don't forget to check out other adoptions happening now!
I'd love to have your polaroid blocks! They are adorable and would make a great kids quilt.
ReplyDeleteI would like a chance at your Plus blocks...just look at the scrappiness of your backgrounds! I believe they would make a great quilt for one of our local hospital patients.
ReplyDeleteOooh! Those Plus blocks make me smile! I'd love a chance to make those into a quilt. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI would like either or both the Polaroid and plus blocks. They would make perfect quilts for our local children's hospital!
ReplyDeleteThanks for participating Jayne! Looks like your projects are going to find some good homes. Now you can start something new!
ReplyDeleteI would like a chance at either one, they're both great. Thanks!

I love both of them but my project for this fall is to sash and finish MY polaroid blocks!

I really really like the plus blocks. I'm happy to pay for shipping to Canada. Good luck finishing all your other projects!
Love both stacks. I''my making small kennel quilts for rescued animals, the Polaroid blocks would be darling with some colorful. Thank you for offering.
ReplyDeleteMy heart skipped a beat with the Polaroid blocks! I've been keeping/stashing fabrics to make a baby quilt using blocks like these, so I'd use yours as am example to make more with my fabrics! I'd then have enough for that baby quilt I've been dreaming of. Now if I could just get that grandbaby I've been dreaming of too!
ReplyDeleteI love the Plus blocks! The rainbow pluses surrounded by low volume fabrics are so pretty! I would make them into a donation quilt for a local charity in my town if you picked me!
ReplyDeleteLove those plus blocks! Count me in...
ReplyDeleteI would love to have a go at those Polaroid blocks. There are some super cute fabrics in there that would make a lovely child quilt.
ReplyDeleteYour Plus Blocks are calling my name! Would you please put me in for a chance? Thank you!
ReplyDeleteHow very generous. What a great idea. Thank you for this chance. I would love your PLUS BLOCKS. These would make a cute baby quilt. I have 2 great nieces due in the next few months.

I would love to win the Plus blocks, they are adorable! I would use them and make a baby quilt to donate thru my quilt guild. This is very kind of you. Hugs,
ReplyDeleteOh, those Polaroids would be perfect for a little quilt for my dear friend, who has an office that is warmed up by quilts on her walls. Please enter my name for your Polaroids.
ReplyDeleteTthank you for offeing these blocks for adoption. I would love the "plus" blocks. It's a block I've seen the past few years and think it would make a lovely quilt to remind myself of all the blessings/pluses I have in my life. I enjoy your blog!
ReplyDeleteFirst choice: I'd love the plus blocks and can envision them in a quilt. If the pluses were not available, I'd be happy to have the polaroids. Thank you for putting these blocks out for adoption. Nadine W. in N. California.
ReplyDeleteBoth are lovely, but I'd pick the plus blocks first! So much scrappy happiness. I've been toying with the idea of a Polaroid baby quilt, so those would give me a good head start! 😊 Thanks for putting them up for adoption!
ReplyDeleteI would like either set of blocks. Thank you for putting these blocks up for adoption. Its a wonderful idea. mfhagopian@aol.com
ReplyDeletePlus, please! I would love to submit a quilt for my Guild's donation program and your blocks would facilitate that goal.
ReplyDeleteI love both sets of blocks and since I need to make quilts for 2 little girls I'd like you to choose which one I might win! Thanks for your generosity!
ReplyDeleteWould love both sets, and would make kids quilt and donate to my local Project Linus chapter.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
Andreia
Would like to win the Plus blocks... I have a nephew & his wife, that just lost their new baby yesterday. Would make them a "Hugs" Quilt!
ReplyDeleteThank you for chance to win your Give-a-way! :D
Both sets are so cute and would love to finish either for donating to our church.
ReplyDeleteBoth sets are so cute and would love to finish either for donating to our church.
ReplyDeleteBoth set of blocks are fun! Always looking for easy sew-together for either nursing home or Linus quilts.
ReplyDeleteOMGosh....I have been wanting to make a + quilt for sometime now. I would love to have those.
ReplyDeleteThose polaroids are SO cute, but I have to say I am looking forward to taking a nice, long break from ISpy anything lol! I adore the plus blocks and if I win the draw, i will not donate them because I think they would look grand surrounding me.
ReplyDeleteThey're both great sets of blocks! I'd take either! 😁
ReplyDeleteEither of these sets of blocks would make a great quilt for my quilting group's fundraiser for a longarm quilting machine. Thanks for the chance. Karen kthurn(at)bektel(dot)com
ReplyDeleteI could finish either set as a donation for a charity quilt. I like your colors.
ReplyDeleteLove both sets!
ReplyDeleteThis would be perfect for a charity quilt project that my girlfriend runs called Mito Quilts of Hope mitoquiltsofhope.org It is for giving quilts to children and adults affected by mitochondrial disease, which is a neurodegenerative disease that can be life threatening. Please FB message Lisa Mito if anyone would like to help out or donate a orphaned quilt or use the contact on mitoquiltsofhope.org.
ReplyDeleteI would love to adopt either one! Thank you for offering the chance to give them new life!

I love your plus blocks, I keep wanting to make a quilt like that. What a great group of blocks, thank you for offering them!
ReplyDeleteI would love to have your poloroid blocks. I love them!
ReplyDeleteOMG I love them all and would use them in donation quilts!! They could perhaps be made into several donation ones if I added some of my own stash to them;-)
ReplyDeleteFantastic! The plus blocks are super cute. I love simple blocks that have a stunning impact!
ReplyDeleteI would love to have the Plus Blocks. Thank you for the chance.
ReplyDeleteGreat projects! I'd love the Polaroid blocks.
ReplyDeleteWow, the blocks are gorgeous! I love both sets and would be excited to get to play with any of them.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great idea! I'm late to the game, but wondering if I have time to check my own stash and offer up an orphan project.
ReplyDeleteI love the plus back and think they would make a great baby quilt. I donate many quilts each year for charity and would lo these blocks for another one:)
ReplyDeleteI am interested in both! I am a beginner quilter, so it's sometimes still hard to make it through a whole project - so this would be great.
ReplyDeleteI like those Plus Blocks a lot!! I have something similar going - it would be fun to try to combine them! Thx for the chance!

Would love a chance for either the plus blocks or the Polaroids. They're all great!
ReplyDeleteI would love the opportunity to finish up your blocks into a quilt for my 2016 kiddo 52 quilt project. Either set is fine with me. Either one will get sashed with bright bold happy fabrics!
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE the plus blocks. They would make an awesome charity quilt! Thanks for the opportunity!
ReplyDeleteHi, I would love either of these projects. The polaroid blocks would make a cute iSpy quilt, and who does not love a plus! Thanks for the opportunity!
ReplyDeleteI can't resist the chance at winning your Poloroid blocks. I remember seeing many of the these blocks on Instagram last year and was sorely tempted to make some but never got around to it.
ReplyDeleteBoth are pretty wonderful and I would be thrilled to wi.n either! Thanks for the opportunity to enter the giveaway.

ReplyDeleteOh, how I WANT those plus blocks. I've been meaning to make these, but have so much trouble coming up with enough background/low-volume fabrics !
ReplyDeletePlease pick me, number generator !!!!!!!
I would like the plus blocks please. Thanks for the chance. vickise at gmail dot com
ReplyDeletefabric choices are the hardest thing for me. It is the hurdle in the race that I can't get over easily. I love to get blocks from others where their creativity has already made the hard choices. I make quilts to raise money for our school and the community with blocks given to me. I love working with other's works-- it takes the pressure off :) I would happily take your blocks (all or either set) and create something fabulous with them that would support other's fundraising goals. Pick me! :) p.s. thank you for offering them up in the first place.
ReplyDeleteI love the plus blocks. They are gorgeous. They would make a great charity quilt.
ReplyDeleteOh these are gorgeous! I have been thinking about making a polaroid quilt for my kiddos and these would be a nice jump start!
ReplyDeletePick me, pick me, pick me please. Want the plus blocks...
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Preeti.
On second thoughts, I have a terrific idea for the polaroid blocks. Yes, I want those too. Pick me please.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Preeti.
Thank you for the chance to win! I would be happy with either set. I would make a baby quilt for the Crisis Pregnancy Center in Richardson, Texas. They are trying to give each newborn a baby quilt.
ReplyDeleteI make charity quilts so I want any or all! XO
ReplyDeleteI would love the polaroid blocks for a childs quilt.
ReplyDeleteYour blocks are wonderful I love them all. ;)
ReplyDeleteI would love the plus blocks-thanks for the chance!!
ReplyDeleteI would like to have the Polaroid blocks. Thanks for the chance to win.

I would love to have the Polaroid blocks for use in my donation quilts for Ronald McDonald house. And I'm going right now to look for some blocks I can offload, er, I mean give away :)
ReplyDeleteI would love to give those Plus blocks a home! I hope I'm not too late to be considered. Thanks!
