And the new winners are…

The three winners of the 100 Blocks Vo. 7 are: Karen, Suz, and Robin. Congratulations! Please do email your addresses to me and Lorna will get your issue into the mail.

Janine Huisjen, winner of the blog tour event, I need to hear from you or I'm going to have to choose another winner for the book and magazine. Please do email me with your physical address.

I did mention that I'd ask my son, Jeff, about the best way to choose a random number. Here is his reply:

"It's not really "random" to ask people to pick numbers — if you did this over and over, you'd find some numbers get picked ore often than others. This can still count as random, but not in the colloquial meaning of "every number has equal probability of being chosen". People are generally bad at simulating randomness. An interesting experiment is to ask people to write down a sequence of 10 coin flips — heads, heads, tails, etc — without actually flipping a coin. The made up sequences will rarely have three heads in a row, even though this happens by chance fairly regularly."

You'll be happy to know that I used a random number generator to choose my winners :-).

  1. Guess that is why I have so much trouble when doing a scrap quilt. I try so hard to be random but find myself making a plan..
