Ok, they say the paper piecing project is too big for the round robin, which is fine. Still going to do it, but now have to think of something for a different center for that. I'll go ahead and make the medallion more as designed than my smaller version. I've been playing with the bag of hand dyes, I have less of the purple type fabrics than I thought, but a huge range of green! Yesterday when I was running my errands I made the paper piecing copies, this is so easy I don't think I really need to paper piece it or can do it the folded method, but part of the reason I chose this was for paper piecing practice (say or type that 3 times fast!).
I don't typically do medallions or samplers or other multi-block concepts but I have a couple ideas in mind for the round robin... I'm thinking more of my traditional type of blocks and fabrics...
I washed my Made in America brand black fabric. I was happier with the white. This had quite a bit of discharge and less opaque than the Kona I am used to. But I do rather like the feel, so I'll have to see how I feel about a finished project.
