- Can I use Stash (fabric I own) – Yes! Pull out a bundle of beautiful fabric

- Can you show me the blocks in advance? No, it's a mystery
- What are the Technique? – All Easy Pieced.
- NOTE: The Blocks do NOT LOOK like the topic of the week. This is not a pictorial quilt. I do a topic as it is way more fun than just plopping out a block. I love the memories and sometimes research that goes into the topic. That keeps my Sew alongs fun and unique.

***Goodies for Someone!***
Goodies go to Suzanne Y who said " I love brownies! I do make both box and from scratch. On special occasions I make Cinnamon Brownies with walnuts and topped with chocolate ganache. I have to run now. Going up to the grand babies but will share the recipe on the cooking group later. Have a great day"

I like all parts of the brownies. I also prefer to have walnuts in them. Also, when I can find cherry extract, I like to add a teaspoon of that to the batter.
I love the crispy edges of brownies!
I always go for the gooey center brownie. I like mine soft!
I bake mine longer to get them almost crunchy…
I love brownies with white chocolate chunks! YUMMM 😋
NO NUTS. sometimes I add dried cranberries ✅
I love brownies that are almost like fudge, especially if they have pecans in them! I have a special brownie pan too, but it is like a square muffin pan.
Brownies are my “emergency” dessert. When I lived in Texas I learned sweet and hot was good, so I started adding about 1 tsp. chili powder to my chocolate brownie mix, along with extra dark chocolate chips. It really sets off the dark chocolate flavors! During the holidays, I substitute about 1/4 c. Bailey’s Irish Cream for 1/4 c. of the water the recipe calls for, then make a glaze from melted butter, powdered sugar and (of course) Bailey’s. Totally decadent but they sure disappear fast.
Love your videos and I’ve learned so much about fabric selection from you. Many thanks and best wishes for 2022.
We just finished up a stash of frozen brownies left from a Christmas party. Must be time to make some of my own. Thanks for your morning video; they make my time on my exercise bike fly by.
I live brownies… I have ordered the pan! Can hardly wait to get it! I will add pecans instead of walnuts.
Thank you Pat Sloan for all your wonderful quilting and sewing ideas and the bonus free quilt blocks that you create and share!
Love brownies and my mom and I fight over the corners but my husband only likes the middle.
I love walnuts or pecans in brownies. Love the edges. I did not know that this unique pan was available. Thank you for sharing.
love love love brownies with pecans…what a cute sweater pillow and love the first block…you come up with some of the funnest layouts…thx Pat
I love fudgy brownies…I really like the center verses the edges. Different strokes for different folks, I guess. Thanks for offering a great goodie bag giveaway!
I love brownies! I have a great recipe, but use a mix when I’m in a hurry. I like adding a scoop of vanilla ice cream & homemade hot fudge sauce on the top.
I love brownies that are thick and fudgy. Not sure I want them to be like cake. And I love pecans in them too. Drizzle some caramel over the top, and you’ve got yourself a sinful dessert!
I will only eat brownies with chocolate frosting. I hope I am not a brownie snob lol
I adore brownies! Mine are smothered in walnuts and now I’m going to buy the pan that you use because I eat the edges as well 🥰
On my 3rd block of the week. Learned so much and especially after every step you give the measurements
Some times I’m good sometimes not but Love it.
Brownies are great potluck desserts.
My everyone gets an edge pan is four long sections that do not touch the next section.
It was given to me by my brother.
Box mixes makes it quicker in the prep time.
I like brownies but I just don’t make them that often. Plenty of other desserts–cheesecake, pies, shortbread, tortes! But if I do make them they need nuts and plenty of chocolate!
Who doesn’t love brownies!! the more nuts the better, chocolate and gooey oh so good.
Thanks for all the information and I love the sew alongs.
I learn to make Brownie in 4-H. I would make them for my mom and dad all the time
. That was their favorite.
I just ordered those brownies to make they look soooo good. Thank you
My family loves brownies. My best friend brought me brownies when I got out of the hospital from knee surggery.
I love all brownies with or without nuts. The best thing about brownies is that you can eat them plain, sprinkled with powdered sugar or with icing on top. That pan allows you to have a crunchy edge on each piece. Yum!!!
My family thinks that my brownies are the best which makes me smile. When my son was a teenager our house was the place to be because I always made the guys brownies! Like you, I used to make mine from scratch but the box mix is even better! My secret ingredient is to sprinkle chocolate chips across the top before I put them into the oven to bake.
We love brownies around here! My family also fights over the edges, so we got a pan that makes 12 individual brownies in one large pan and tada no more fighting!
Love to eat brownies but chocolate is bad for my a fib. Peantbutter is good with them.
Loved the UFO video, very helpful information. Thanks Pat!
I love brownies above all other desserts. You can make them with your own special twist. They are a design ready to be made and enjoyed. Boxed or from scratch they call your name. Yes I live brownies…
I love brownies that are gooey in the center and have walnuts or pecans in them. Oh, yes, and dark chocolate brownies are the best! Thanks for the QAL!
I love brownies because they are chocolate. Need I say more????
I LOVE Brownies!!! So quick and easy to make. I add walnuts to mine. They sure do not last long around here, lol.
I love brownies with a milk chocolate frosting, but my husband insists brownies are not supposed to be frosted.
I LOVE BROWNIES WITH WALNUTS GOING TO TRY YOUR BROWNIE PAN THINK THAT IS GREAT THANKS FOR THE INFO
My grandchildren always ask for Grammy’s brownies I put andies candies on the top & spread them as they melt!
OMG! I LOVE brownies! I’ll take the edges or the center – don’t care. I like them best with walnuts but without is OK too. Hubby likes them with frosting – me…not so much. Even the grandkids know to not take the last brownie (even though they definitely could!)
I love brownies especially with walnuts, but I love the center and not the edges of a brownie. I love the soft chocolaty center.
Actually brownies are my “go to” favorite. I make them all kinds of different ways….but my favorite is right out of the pan with butter on top ❤️
Brownies are my go to dessert. I even have a few brownie only cookbooks! One can never have too many brownie recipes!!!
I love the brownie crisp edges. I like chocolate chips and pecans in my brownies. Yum!
Brownies are one of my favorites. My son likes blonde brownies with butterscotch chips.
I like the texture of brownies. I have never seen a brownie pan like that! How clever is that?
Thanks for the giveaway. I would love to win it. I so enjoy everything that you do Pat. You are a Blessing to all of us and we love you.
My grandkids love brownies.
Love nuts in mine. Here in the south it is pecans all the way.
I LOVE brownies, “cakey” ones are my favorite as well. I will eat them constantly til they’re gone sooo, I don’t make them very often. ☺️
Brownies go with anything, any time!
Brownies go with everything,anytime!!
