Carrie gets two sneak peaks today - here is a peak at what I've been working on for the round 2 top. I was planning turning the quilt and then repeating the inner borders.
I have not made the centers yet - wanted to wait and see what would look best once I figured out where they would go.

Mona, that is very nice! I've enjoyed following you in this swap.
It will be fun to see my top, I know photos never show the colors correctly so they look so much better in person.
I worked on Carrie's quilt a bit this morning, I've got two corners done and working on the third. Once I got the first figured out, the other three aren't so tough.

I was thinking the exact same thing. My daughter commented that she thinks that I enjoy the round robins because they are a challenge to creativity and always end up looking great but also turn out to be a huge happy surprise. The deadlines force you to get into the sewing room and do the work, too, which is a good thing. I think she is right. Hugs all!!

I share the centaments. I like the forced deadline that is very doable, as long as I don't procrastinate or agonize over decisions.
On Mona's Avatar it does seem to sparkle. On my wall, not so much. My sewing group meets tomorrow and they've been following the progress. So it'll go to the mail on Friday.
I'm glad the first few rounds moved ahead of schedule. This large last one was more consumming: time and creativity.
Yes, I'm sad to see it end and look forward to the next. Sign me up.
