Will check out the blog at Quiltmaker. That is one of my favorite magazines to buy at the news stands. I need to look for that issue, because I know I will not win one. I am also pleased to know the name of Eleanor's newest book. When will it be available?

Thanks for the heads up.

Wow! This sounds great! Quilt blocks on barns are becoming a big thing in many areas.... they have trails to follow, so this is a really neat idea!
