Fall 2021 Round/Row Robin sign up is open
 

Sign ups for Fall 2021 Row/Round Robin is open until 8.15.21

Please sign up for either a row robin or a round robin or both if you so choose. Once sign up is complete we will set up the groups. Please indicate if you can mail international or not when sending your mailing info to me.
You will have a month to finish and mail each round.
Anticipated schedule:
Dates for the Row Robin: Each row will be 12" x 60", completed quilt will be 60"x60"
9.1.21 mail first row
10.1.21 mail 2nd row
11.1.21 mail 3rd row
12.1.21 mail 4th row
1.1.22 mail 5th(final) row


Dates for the Round Robin: the centers can be square or rectangle with at least one side 18" to 24"

9.1.21 mail center
10.1.21 mail 1st round
11.1.21 mail 2nd round
12.1.21 mail 3rd round
1.1.22 mail 4th round
2.1.22 mail 5th(final) round
Each person will make their center and send it on to the next participant, who will add on a border, in the style and/or theme of the center block (or completely different but complimentary.)

Each person in turn adds another border that compliments the quilt. Once the quilt has made the rounds to all participants it is mailed back to the original owner.

Each border should be not more than 6" wide. We are experienced quilters. If you slap on a plain border because the piece needs a plain border, add something like applique. Don't be lazy on someone else's piece.

This Row/Round Robin is open and welcoming to members of all skill and income levels.
Use only 100 percent quilting cotton. Please pre-wash and press your fabric.
Please note: Board participation is an essential ingredient in making this RR successful. Please do not disappear.

General Rules

1. Please send things you'd be happy to receive yourself.

2. Please graciously accept what you receive.

3. If, for some reason, you don't feel you can use something you receive in a swap, please keep it to yourself. If you receive fewer items than you were supposed to receive, please notify the activity organizer by pm. NO public posts complaining about "inferior" fabric or construction, whether or not it was pre-washed, over-exposed to smoke or pets, off-size, etc. (This hasn't happened in a very long time. I mention it as a COB (Cover Our Butts) "just in case".)

4. Please, NO public complaints or criticisms of other swappers, items received, or other type for any reason. This rule applies to any related posts in all sections of the board - including Personal Diaries & Announcements. ALL complaints must be addressed by Private Message (pm) to the activity coordinator. In the unlikely event the coordinator cannot help solve the problem, please contact PatriceJ.

5. Every once in a while, a swapper who's participating in more than one swap may accidentally send their packets to the wrong coordinator(s). If you receive items that don't seem to match the swap, please notify the coordinator. She/he will try to help resolve the mixup.

6. You must agree to mail/ship your packages using a carrier & method that provides tracking information (for example, USPS Priority).

7. You must agree to provide that tracking information to the Swap Coordinator as soon as the package has been sent.

8. If you want to leave a positive feedback/rating for a user with whom you swapped, then please make sure to read the feedback rules. Only Swap Coordinators/Hosts may post negative feedback in relation to a swap or similar activity.

The most important rule of all:

HAVE FUN, FUN, FUN .... AND LOTS MORE FUN!!!!

I plan to do the Row robin for sure and might jump into a round robin also.

I have a winter/snowman themed row robin from many years ago so now I need a spring/summer row robin. I've got a couple of projects going right now but plan to start the first row soon.

Hello Mona! I'm excited to try this!

Only one more spot for the first Row Robin Group.

The DC house
 

Well since Mona said to post our photos (big smile)……
here is my center. My friend has been asking for a quilt for a while. He lives in DC, & loves DC. I surprised him, searched google maps and printed photos of his home for the center. Can’t wait to see what you might do with this :-) the one shows a close up of the front door the other shows the block on the bottom and reference photo on top. hugs all!!

So cute!!!

I just sent in my request to join in on the row robin. So excited - my first row!
We left AZ end of April and been all the way up to Maine - visiting friends and family. Spending quality time with grandchildren is always my favorite thing. Just the fact that the teenagers still want to spend time in our RV with us!

The only question I have is the 1st the actual mail date? i am hoping the mail has gotten better and will allow for at least three weeks to contemplate and design and change my mind and sew!

Welcome TG, sounds like you are living upto your name:).
If mail gets slow we can always adjust.

Very nice Rebaquilts. I am trying to enlist hubby's help to draw me our house so I can applique it for the center. He says, he has no time. I did start on the row for the row quilt. I am looking forward to working on your round robbin.

I
 

I am calling my center Flamingo Love. It's for my cousin who lives flamingos, pink, and yellow.

My daughter will be so jealous of this quilt! She loves pink flamingos! That is a great center. :)

My cousin too. I just love the vibrancy and fun this center evokes.

My row is going to be penguins and rainbows. Working on that that one now.

Count me in for row robin.

they are adorable. I might have to jump into the round robin.

do you want to do both or just the round robin as stated in your pm?

pretty little flamingos
 

So despite my general moratorium on fabric purchasing in concept, I noticed some pretty pink flamingo tiny-motif fabric at a local store. I had a 40% off coupon. That was my justification and I'm sticking to it.. And it was so cute!! LOL Hugs all!

Well no hand surgery...just a custom thumb/wrist splint...for now. He says I will need it but because I am only 42 he really hopes I can wait at least 5 more years. Being fitted on Thursday. Now to see what the MRI shows on the shoulder...I may be able to take that last Round Robin spot...I should know before the end of the week....

Of course if someone else wants it, that is completely fine too!! Not asking you to hold it for me. :)

Thanks for the update CarrieM, I hope you get more goods news after the MRI
