Okay here are my "owner's pieces" and no it isn't because I am keen (though I am excited to get this going). The medallion was a centre that I did and never did finish the blocks that go with it (one of those dreaded UFOs) and the row is blocks that i never put into a quilt (damn another UFO).
So now I can delete 2 UFOs out of my basket :) Also regarding the journal, it is more a quilt diary. You all live in such interesting places and I thought it might be nice to share the experience of being you in your hometown...it would also be a nice keepsake when we are done. So, for example, I put in my journal about my family, my hometown, the history of the blocks/medallion etc. I then added a piece about what my wishes/dream of the finished product would be (in very generic terms) and added a picture of it in its current state. Here are the 2 for my round robin...remember i am a quilter and not a photographer...though somedays i wouldn't say i was a quilter either since i spend a lot of time "unsewing" my work. part of the row for my row round robin [ATTACH=CONFIG]116671[/ATTACH] my medallion round robin [ATTACH=CONFIG]116967[/ATTACH] |

round 1: John passes his quilt to Jane. Jane passes her quilt to Mary. Mary passes her quilt to John. round 2: John still passes to Jane but now he is passing Mary's quilt. Jane still passes to Mary but now she is passing John's quilt. Mary still passes to John but now she is passing Jane's quilt. Thus, the person you pass to never changes the only thing that changes is the quilt you are passing. does that make any more sense or is it too early in the morning and i am rambling? :-) debe thank you. I understand how it works, but since you only gave me one persons info and no other...well the though was already stated. Now I am curious as to who will be working on my center and whose centers I will be working on! |

Not that you have to do the same but this is what I have in my journal...........
page 1 I am Debbie Langlois & I currently live in Liverpool NS Canada. My husband & I moved here from Hamilton, ON in November, 2010. It was a big deal for me as I have never lived anywhere but Hamilton nor have I travelled a lot. Besides Hamilton has a population of 500,000 and Liverpool has a population of 3000. But it is nice to be living on the Atlantic Ocean instead of the "big city." I have 2 daughters & 1 son, 2 dogs & 1 cat. My children have all grown but not provided me with any grandchildren yet. About my quilt. You really can't go wrong. I am not a perfectionist and not fussy. I am not very good at working on "scrappy quilts" and yet when I see them done I like usually like them. My quilts tend to be "matchy" and the colours tie together somehow. I've put a few spare squares and strips of fabric that you can you use or not use in your row. Thanks for doing this with me. page 2 Well here I sit at home in my quilting room in Debbie's house in Hunts Point (a spit in the road), Nova Scotia. We really consider ourselves as living in Liverpool. Liverpool is on the South Shore of Nova Scotia and just east of where hurricane Earl hit last year. Debbie & her husband Andy moved here from Hamilton, Ontario mostly for the scenery. They brought their dogs,Gumbo (a dog adopted from Louisanna -- a Katrina rescue) and Maggie (a little spitfire) and their cat, Kitty (who thinks he is a dog). It was a 24 hour drive form Hamilton & that's a long drive for the pets!!! Now the start of my travels through various places in the United States and one short stop in Wellandport. Only a hop, skip, & a jump from Hamilton :) I can't wait to start my travels and see what I look like in the end. |

My center piece will be similar to the one in this quilt. I desiged 5 medallions in the series Flowers of the Night.
