Grumpy,

the rules are on page one of this thread.
Sorry to say that this one is full. Keep watching, someone may start another one. At this time I think there at least 5 in progress, so it might be a little while.

In the mean time, we are just starting a block exchange. That might interest you. you can find it and sign up here

Ok, what I think is sooooo tremendously FUN about round robins is that the center is something that we see so much of while it's being made. We agonize over it, wear it out with our eyes, go between love/hate, then send it off. When it comes back, it's surrounded by so much talent and imagination all based upon the center, we go "wow" is that really mine? I LOVE it!

Grumpy, Have you seen the Blue & White Block exchange, not quite a round robin, but a lot of fun.

Have a look you can still join in.

well, here is my center. I;m not sure I like the border but other than that, i like it. any suggestions on a different border color I could put on instead? I wish I had kept the edges of the top big dogwood blossom and draped it over the border the way I did thecat's tail, but too late for that since I've already cut the edges off! :oops: :-)

All that is left is doing the applique stitching around the small dogwood blossoms on the tree adn the leaves on the tree, no small undertaking. but, it's mostly done! :-)
