    Wildyard, Yes, there was a pre-determined max size your center block is. We have 2 months to work on each others centers. We will not get them back till next year. Now, the begining rounds won't take that long. But, as the quilt "grows", you will need a bit of extra time to construct and attach your round. Sometimes a plain border is appropriate and it's fine to use it.

    And, thank you. I am really starting to like the 30's reproduction prints. I like that color a lot also. (giggle)

    Wow, ladies - your centers are amazing. Mine seems so plain compared to yours. I can see the challenge is on! I can hardly wait.

    Tam...moo, you are onto blue, too!! It's beautiful! I always love florals, but haven't worked a lot with them. Don't know why, either! Now, I'll have a chance with this lovely blue and yellow print!
    What size is it? It looks like a rectangle.

    Yes, that is exactly what I meant. I will be the last one in this robin to work on her quilt so I thought I would make the offer.

    Tam...moo Your block is very creative. I love the floral center. It amazes me that all 6 of us have some shade of blue as a main color and we never had a clue what anybody's looked like until they were posted. This is going to be one great round robin. I will be adding the final border to yours tam...moo so I've got quite a while to think about it.

    Oh Tam..moo that is stunning!

    Well, that makes it official - all used some shade of blue. Should we call ourselves The Blue Robins ? {{{groan}}}

    Sorry, I just couldn't help myself.
