Round Robins

I have finally finished another Plym Piecemaker's Round Robin row. This row is for Sue's quilt. Sue's theme is 'Butterflies and Flowers'. I have completed nine blocks. Why? Instead of thirty blocks in the bag, there was thirty one. So I have rounded the number of blocks to forty. Sue, I hope you like the blocks. The butterflies are my own design. I will be using them in a future quilt that I will share with you all soon.

I have now finished my second row for Plym Piecemaker's Round Robin. I completed two rows for this project. The main row is paper pieced sailing boats and the second is a simple 6 inch pieced blocks using theme fabrics. The theme for this quilt is 'Seaside'. I gave the owner back her bag at last night's meeting.

Now onto the third Round Robin.....

Round Robins

I was voted in as the Coordinator or some call it Chairman of Plym Piecemakers in January 2009. As many members have never participated in a round robin, I organised a Row by Row Round Robin for Plym Piecemakers in Plymouth (Devon UK).

There are four groups, with six quilters in each group, taking part. I'm in the team called Patsy's Pride. We were meant to swap our bags at this week's meeting. All the quilters were excited as they were going to get their own bags back. But I have had a sewing nightmare. I got stuck on the second round. I could not think of what to do for theme of countryside without animals. I passed the bag on to the next member and requested that it should be given back to me later in the project.

I now have all the bags but mine in my sewing room. Each one waiting to receive a row. And each owner waiting to receive their bags home. I have taken part in many round robins and this is the first time that I have struggle to complete on time.

The photo is to prove that I have completed one round and only three to go!!! Who's round is it?

Wait and see.....
