I got my fabric today and hope to get it washed tonight so I can start on my cneter. I plan on using Eleanor Burns' Log Cabin Christms Wreath. I won't put on the bow or holly berries until I get it back. I have always wanted to have a Christmasey quilt and this will make it special as being made with the Round Robin group.

Hi there, well I will explain as best I can to you. We have 6 people in our group. each makes a square, any type of project you like paper pieced applique, what ever you feel happy with. You send that block to the next person on your list who puts a border on it and then it goes from there to the next person. and on it goes. So you have 6 blocks being passed round all getting borders on from another person. eventually you end up with your own middle block with all the borders on making you a beautiful quilt. Hope that explains it.

I wouldn't worry about the postage.
If you are worried about it being handled and folded and smashed in the mail maybe is better to add them at the end.
The extra bulk at the end will make it harder to work with.
Decisions, decisions.

Terri, I love it, gorgeous. Good idea that, taping it to get the effect.
Are those the colours you are going to have? Oooops I looked again and those are the fabrics, it looked so perfect I thought it was paper. :oops:
