ckcowl...while I am over here sneaking a peak, just want to say that your center is AMAZING! Can't wait to see a final quilt designed around that.

ok- group---and fearless leader...... we need to stop in every now & then & 'touch base' otherwise we will 'fall through the cracks' and it will be difficult to find our (place in this vast forum) so, just stop by & say hi, let us know if you are brainstorming, or working on your centers....keep in touch. :)

it doesnt look like we have seen everyone on this thread yet. Can everyone say hi, so i know that you have made it over safely?

maybe we are going to have to (pm) each of the members who have not 'checked in' to make sure they know they are part of us? there is the possibility they have missed the group posting-and do not know the assignments have been made???

Well, the doc told me this morning that it would take another 6 weeks for my finger to heal, but that is not going to stop me from making my center this week. I will just have to adapt and keep going. I'll post a pic by this weekend and am looking forward to seeing all of yours too.

so, has anyone heard anything from the 2 members of our group who have not posted here? are they posting on the main round robin topic? are we only (3) ? that would be a bumber- communication is kind of important for a successful round robin. this is kind of feeling like a bust before we even get going... :(

Hello. I am a member in this group. I am looking forward to the round robin quilt. I have done 2 round robins in our quilt guild, but never one on here It was my understanding that October was the first due date. Is that still accurate? I am not able to post on here often. Also, at this time, I am not able to post pictures. My laptop is a dinosaur and all efforts to post a picture (to any site or email) has failed. If posting frequent notes and/or pictures is mandatory then I'm afraid I won't be able to participate. 8(

The quilt I'm wanting to make for this round robin will be for my entry way. It will hang on the wall. I'm trying to choose a pattern of a house. I'm just not sure which one I want yet.

Can our group leader advise me further regarding this swap? Thanks. Jan

All ladies of the swap have checked in with me, we are good. communication is important but so is making all of our members feel welcome. The first due date is October 1st and we have plenty of time. I am more than happy to take pictures of any tops that come my way and post them or if folks want to mail me pics via the post office I can post those too. the one question i do have for all of you is what style of fabric do you like? 30's, batiks, reproductions, brights. our big sewing expo is coming up a month from today and there will be vendors galore! if email works better for folks to stay in touch my email is idigpotatoes at gmail dot com (with all the regular punctuation i just dont want the spam bots to pick it up)

mailed my center to cjoyce today.

yea! sounds like we are off & running now. :) I too can take & post pictures when I receive if that helps anyone- I will also take a picture after I add my border-before sending on- we will be able to keep them up so don't stress over it if you can not take a picture- as for what kinds of fabrics I like....I do love batiks, small prints, tone on tones- not so much into the reproductions, 30's, and novelties- although they do have their place and I use them when they fit what I am working on- my current rr block would not really 'fit' with any of those.
