● ● ● Hey Nicki, you did get one correct.

I found Lisa's entry. I'm still trying to analyze it.

Good going Seeing Stars! What sleuthing techniques did you use?

Thanks AngelaC,
I look at the participants from previous STT's to see what kind of work they do. There are some features that stand out. I do try to use all the data available, but I finally feel like I've spent enough time and submit my best guesses, even with lots of them total guesses. I didn't remember that shequilts is formerly CBQ until after I'd sent my guesses.

LisaTx is much more patient than I am. I'm guessing she's 90 to 95% correct this year.

I didn't spend too much time on my research this year. Definitely over two hours, but well under three hours.

I was really hoping for 100% accuracy this year, but don't think that I pulled it off .

● ● ● I'm still working on Lisa's entry. Should have the results tomorrow. Although, her numbers will not affect the Leader Board, she will be rewarded for her super sleuthing.

If Terrimae would have sent in her entry a few days earlier, she might of had the pleasure of being on top for a day or two. Sorry Terri, but not too bad. You matched seven.

Geez, one right? I put way too much effort in this to only get one right. Are you sure you were looking at MY guesses? Maybe you got mine mixed up with Seeing Stars.

that's OK, jayardi, I'm THRILLED (and may I add shocked) to have seven right. I can hardly wait to find out which seven. Soon enough, I know, I know.

Thanks again for continuing this challenge, I really enjoy it. If I lived closer, I'd be ever so willing to help you with the swapping out...oh, well.

● ● ● Well, you could invite me over for a week of Florida sunshine and sorting.

● ● ● Just a reminder: even if you don't win this contest, it's a great way to earn some extra BONUS SQUARES for next year.

A few more entries have arrived but no upsets.


Are you ready to hear the results of Lisa's guesses? Maybe, I should wait until she sends in her votes.

Oh my, holding my results for ransom until I vote , guess I better get busy!

After the kiddos are asleep tonight, I'll take care of that.

I voted earlier

Guesses have been sent. Not holding out much hope for topping the leader board. LOL.

Well . . . I know that I'm not the only one hanging on to see what the rest of that sentence.

● ● ● Oh dear, did I forget to write the winner? So sorry, Dan called dinner and off I went.

The winner of the Quilt Maker Contest is SEEING STARS with 19 correct matches.



And the results of our Reigning Queen, Ms Lisa . . .


O M G !


TWENTY-SIX out of 30. Way to go Lisa!

Now to make this fair to everyone, Lisa's score does not count towards the Quilty Prize, but I will be sending her a little something too.

Congratulations Ladies!

Congratulations Seeing Stars AND Lisa!

Lisa, do you keep copies of your "guesses" & results? I'm curious if there's anyone's that you have consistently gotten wrong? I'd love to know if thee is anyone that keeps you guessing.

Congratulations Seeing Stars. That's an amazing total as is our Ms. Lisa's. I'm happy to get more than my own right.

Wow Lisa! You rock.

Lisa and Seeing Stars you're Awesome!!

Congratulations to everyone!

Should I tell which ones I got wrong? There is one person that I have missed two years in a row and another that I have missed two out of the last three years. Man, I really wanted a clean sweep this year! Initially, I thought about not even trying any guesses, but couldn't pass up the opportunity for bonus squares .

Yes Lisa! I'd love to know who's been able to trick you. I'm sure I'm one of the easier ones to figure out, but that's okay with me.

Congrats Seeing Stars.. That's impressive!
