To all of my previous HGTV FQ Bingo players - here's a little heads up BEFORE you get your FQs ready – I'll go ahead and share this here with all of you to read – BEFORE you cut anything up….. take a look below ;)

Hello quilting friends!!! Guess what time it is??
The 5th Annual HGTV Fat Quarter Bingo Game 2010!
Can you believe that this year is our FIFTH year to play!!??! It’s been very exciting and a boar favorite that players look forward to each April Fool’s Day! That is when the number calling begins! And like in past years, I’ll call 2 number each day excluding Sundays until we have BINGO winners!!!
In honor of our FIFTH year milestone, I have come up with something a little different that I think you will like.
This year, in honor of our 5th year, if you mail in a WHOLE 1 yard piece of fabric you will receive FIVE bingo cards!! (instead of four)
1 yard = 5 cards
2 yards = 10 cards
3 yards = 15 cards
4 yards = 20 cards
However things get a little different if you send in our MILESTONE 5th YEAR – you can earn BONUS cards!!
If you send in FIVE yards or more you will be receive ANOTHER FIVE BONUS CARDS in addition to the cards for each yard!
For example = send in a total of
5 yards = 25 cards + 5 BONUS cards = 30 cards!
6 yards = 30 cards + 5 BONUS cards = 35 cards!
You can still send in FQs for each card you want to play with – I’m sure a few of you FQ Bingo die hards, already have yours set aside and ready to go that you’ve picked out through the past year. ;) However after hearing from past winners that sometimes a fat quarter of beautiful fabric just isn’t enough to get started on a project without having the means to go find and buy more…. I thought this would be a great way to do the game this year.
If you received this as an email then you are the first to be notified and invited to play in this year’s game! ;) Breaking up the emails into player groups from last year helps me manage the email volume much better and stay organized without being overwhelmed.
You can simply reply back to the email to get signed up to play anytime between now and when the game starts, however the sooner you let me know – then the sooner I can start letting players know how big our winner’s jack pot is g-r-o-w-i-n-g!!!
I will be monitoring the 5th HGTV FQ Bingo thread on the HGTV boards as players sign up and show a list there as well as the projected FQ JACKPOT – so keep up with us there to watch the FQs g-r-o-w and g-r-o-w ;)
In years past we have had over 2000+ FQs and I’m hoping that with the opportunity to get BONUS cards, this will be BY FAR, our largest and greatest FQ BINGO YET!!! :)
I sure hope to hear back from you and that you will join us for some great fun!
Also let me again thank all of you for your "SUPPORT" last year – many of you in your hostess gift giving send in dollars for the B.B.B.B.B.B. aka "bingo, bonnie, buzzem, buddies bra bucks!"
That was so supper kind of all of you to help me out after my reduction surgery last year!! I had lots of fun buying new bras, blouses, and even my new Easter dress last year – finally one that FIT me the way it should! ;)
All of my friends on the HGTV board are so special to me and I thank you all again for letting me continue to be your FQ Bingo hostess each year! It truly is a TON OF FUN for me! and I look forward to all the data organizing and nerdy spreadsheet keeping each year! :P
Any Questions about the bingo, please contact me!
Love from Texas! ~bonnie
