I'm a Round Robin newbie so I quickly realized that I made some rookie mistakes, namely not sending enough additional fabrics with my quilt center. Honestly I didn't send much because I wanted to encourage the other participants to add fabric of their own to my quilt, but when I saw what Terrie sent along to me I saw the error of my ways. Forgive me ladies! And if you need more fabric I'll send it along to you!
My next challenge was to figure out what I was going to add to Terrie's quilt. Again, because this is my first Round Robin I wasn't sure if I needed to add dimension all the way around the quilt or if simply building out from two sides was adequate. In the end I opted for the former and added, essentially, a "ring" around Terrie's center.
Terrie had also requested the addition of solids to the quilt so I pulled out a bunch of fabrics from my own stash to add into the mix. I also had plenty of owl fabrics to throw in as well. Here's a sneak peek...
It's already on it's way to Jorie for her turn at it. I included some of the fabrics I added into the quilt as well. I hope Terrie is happy with the outcome. I can't wait to see the finished product!
So cute Hollie. I only added three sides to Jories. It is just whatever you want to so as long as it leaves your house 5" longer and 5" wider. I actually added 8" to three sides of Jorie's :)
ReplyDeleteI would love to do something like this. How fun!
