#100Days100Blocks2018: Blocks 41 – 50 and Winner Announcement

Another frustrating hour spent looking for winners when so many people aren’t following all the sponsors. Oh well, guess that just means the chances are better for those of you that are following all the sponsors. There’s also still lots of questions being asked about how winners are announced, when, where to find them, etc.ย  If you have any questions about prizes, or the event in general,ย  please check out the Frequently Asked Questions by clicking here.

Every 5 days after a segment of blocks finishes I’ll be announcing the winners for that section. (Have you printed out the free event tracker so you know when the prizes will be announced? Click here to download.) I really wish I could give everyone a prize for participating. The entries are amazing and the quilts being made are each unique and a reflection of the person making them. Winners details are below and so is a round up of my next ten blocks for this years event.

Please note:ย Winners have 48 hours from 7:30am 20 August (in their timezone) to claim their prize. You must email me to claim your prize. You can either email through the site by clicking here or send me an email at hello[at]gnomeangel.com. Unclaimed prizes may be allocated to another winner at the discretion of the event host. Please do not contact the sponsor directly to claim your prize, doing so will void your winning. Please do not DM on Instagram to claim your prize as I may miss it and you will miss out. I will email all winners back within working hours (that’s 9:30am – 2:30pm Monday to Friday AEST (Sydney Time) – please give me up to 3 working days to respond.ย Please don’t send me multiple messages across multiple platforms – you just slow the process down as I have to take time out to look at all the messages. For more information about prize allocation please click here.

A word to those of you that are participating and hoping to win a prize – I looked at a lot of accounts this week to find winners as many of the accounts that were drawn to win a prize weren’t following sponsors. If you’re hoping to be in the running for all prizes, please be sure to check out which accounts you need to follow and follow them. (The tracker has all the details on it if you’re looking for a list you can tick off!) If you’re not worried about prizes then it’s not a big drama and you can pick and choose who to follow. If I picked you out and you weren’t following the sponsor who’s prize you could have won, I just throw you back into the pool and it’s in the lap of fate if you get picked again. This week I even left some comments on people’s accounts so they knew they came close…
