Paula, thanks for the explanation, I get it now. So each quilt will be square unless you make your original center rectangular. Each person adds a pieced border of the predetermined size but of their own creation in both color and design, then passes it on to the next person in line. Would anyone ever add a regular strip border, either narrow or wide, at any point, if they felt it was appropriate to the design?
Would it be considered inappropriate to start with a, say, 36" center if you wanted to end up with a larger quilt at the end???? Or do you also pre-determine acceptable ranges for the starting square sizes too?
What is the usual turnover time that each person keeps the quilt piece they have between times to pass it on? I am leary of deadlines. LOL
Thanks for educating us on this process. Maybe one day I, too, will be brave enough to join one. LOL

Judith, I am sooooo in love with the turquoise color in your block!! I love all your blocks but that color is one of my favorites.
