Round Robin

Explanation and Rules

This is a fun collaboration!  FUN.  We start with a center block and add borders.  The borders can be pieced, appliqued, paper pieced, embroidered or embellished.  You can include a note with your block with requests, if you like, but group members do not have to follow your requests.  Each border will be due each month at the quilt guild meeting. The only exception will be the last border because of the size.   It will be two months. If you cannot make the meeting, arrangements must be made to get the quilt to pass to the next person.  You will know who you have to hand it off to.

Sign-ups will begin in February at the Guild meeting.  If you cannot make the meeting, you can email Terry Duncan at Terryduncan53@gmail if you want to be included.  If you are interested in doing it, plan on having your center block done by the March meeting.

The center blocks will be handed out in March and off we go!

Center Block:   • Make a block 12 ½” – 18 1/2“unfinished

This can be a pieced block, applique, panel block as long as it meets the 12-18” requirements.  DO NOT Make your block a prime number!   No 13- or 17-inch blocks!  It makes it difficult to make borders.

Groups will be approximately 5 -7 people depending on how many sign up.  This will come out to a center square and a border for each person. (4-6 borders).  This will depend on the number of participants.    After the last border is added, you receive it back and you can do what you want with it.  We will have an unveiling at the meeting and after that you Keep it, gift it, donate it!  Completely up to you.

If you have questions, please contact Terry.  This is a new endeavor, and it can evolve.  Any points of clarification are very welcome!

New Year. New Challenge!  Let’s do it!
