Round robin quilt ideas

During the past year, I've worked on six different round robin quilts of varied styles, colors and fabrics in addition to sending my center square off. It was a challenge to keep them secret for so long, but I did. Last week was the Dear Jane Fall Retreat in Shipshewana where the quilts were returned to their owners. Here are the finished tops from our group of seven that included three MI, one WI and three IN quilters. This is the first quilt I received. When I saw all of those colors, I…

Ok..... this quilt is turning out totally wonderful!!! I am sooo excited to share what I came up with for this row. And, for some reason we skipped a pattern. Did anyone else notice that? The patterns are usually going out every other monday...but there was a jump in dates. Sometimes I totally wonder where my brain is! I know, it's behind my eyes.....but clearly it wasn't on while looking at calendar dates. Enough about the brain....let's get on with the totally cute row!

Yesterday we had our first Monday Modern meeting of the year and those of us who had participated in the round robin received our completed minis back from the person who had done the quilting and binding. I had Louise's quilt for the final round. I am not a confident quilter so I aimed for 'tidy' rather than anything more ambitious. Louise's was one of the larger minis at approximately 34" square, so quite a nice size for a baby quilt or pram quilt. With this in mind, I thought I would…

What a day I had yesterday! I headed to New Glasgow to meet up with fellow members of the Nova Scotia Quilt Bloggers Quartet (NSQBQ) to do the exchange with them of our Round-Robin Challenge Quilts. M

Two of the Round Robin quilts being made in the Sunday Sew and Sews are now complete. Meaning, they will be returned to their owner and she can decide if it is done or is worthy of more borders. One is mine and I love it! It's 42" square at the moment: I began with the 12" Rising Sun variation, with the navy blue frame around it. The next person added the four-patch borders. The next person went all out with the applique' borders--I LOVE the sweet birds. The last person to work on it added…

Today’s border for the Stay at Home Round Robin (SAHRR) is brought to you by the prompt from Quilting Gail, who put this whole quilt along together, with lots of prompting input from her quilting friends. Her prompt is “4.” Anything we want as long as it somehow relates to 4. I had been thinking for awhile of doing something with piano keys and did a mock-up of a design, but it seemed to overwhelm the rest of the quilt. (The keys would have been 2 by 4 inches.) Not wishing to abandon the…

Kate and Elizabeth were a delight to meet this last year at Quilt Market. They were so generous and enthusiastic about everything! They even tracked me down later with a swag bag because I was wearing their pin they had given me!
