DITTO DITTO and only hope to get good enough to do something llike this. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Here is Steph's (mamatobugboo).
Hope you like it!
I didn't want to put any applique on this border only because I didn't want it to take away from what Elle had done.

Ladies,
I hadn't seen this post before and I just had to tell you are a bunch of very talented ladies. Beautiful quilts!

Beautiful work ladies! You all are so talented!

As my granddaddy would say....does a bear poop in the woods??????


Come on...I can't wait!

Terri, that looks great! Now, send it on!! :lol:

It'll be in the mail this week! Hold your horses! lol

Wow I would like to have some of the work yall do. It is awesome. Love this one to.

Just home from quilt retreat and I see my quilt. All I could say was
"Oh my quilt" my DH said what he matter with you. I showed him
the quilt how cute it was. So she did all the hard work, starting over.
But what a great job.

Texasquilts.

Here is the little tease for Sandpat.

Want to guess what I am planning to do?

I know what you are doing!! You are tearing it apart, cutting it into little pieces then sending it to her. lol
Nah.....I know you wouldn't do that!
Whatever it is you are doing,,,I cannot wait to see it!

DH says you are very close!

Missy here is your round 4, I hope you like it.

Oh nooooo!!!! I've been good..I swear!!! Very good!!! You aren't cutting that beauty apart..I know..but..hmmm.....checkerboard??? Oh heck...I bet its pieced though :wink: I can't wait to see it!!!!

mgrhs....I'm soooo glad you finally posted what you did...that tease was just...well...teasing me!! It looks great! Good job!!

Great job Mona. you did a lot of work.

That is looking really pretty Mona, what a great job you did choosing colours.

Love it.

Elle

Colletta-
In honor of all the fallen trees we lost this winter and the clean up involved (which will take us into next year probably!) I added Sawtooths from Oregon. Hope you like it! I'll have it ready to mail tomorrow. A little early but that will give Mary who is next in line more time to ponder :lol:

That is just perfect!!! Its turning out better than I had ever imagined!

Wow,I just love it,that center block looks really hard. Is it paper pieced ?

I am not that new to the board,but I haven't gotten in on a lot of the things you all do. What is the round robin? It looks like someone is getting a whole quilt in the mail? I think I am missing out...

That is very nice. I am ready!!!!

This is where the thread was started.

Awwww Colletta....I'm jealous!!! 2Doods, you did a great job on that addition! I think your fallen trees would be proud to have inspired that choice! :lol: :lol:

Ya'll did a great job!!

I need your opinions here. I was working on a trellis and I have worked and fussed & sewn & resewn and I am at my wits end here. 2 corners are fine. 1 is OK and 1 is, well, look at the picture.

I cannot get the corners to match. Because of the math they are not coming out exactly right. Soooooo, I put it back so it is straight which means my seams don't match.

As I was working on this I thought it would be fun to have applique bunches on top of this but not limited to just my border. After this has completed its round you (Sandpat) could add the applique once you get it back or you could send it back to me and I would be glad to add to the completed top. What do you think I should do?

Thanks for your input.

Hmm, but you haven't squared it yet, so I'm not sure if anything is wrong. It looks like a great choice.

OK Ladies

Here goes - this is my addition to Elles centre from Group 1. This was a hard one for me as I wasn't too sure whether to try to do some appliqued Japanese writing along each side. Anyhow after so deliberation I decided upon a plainish border with some blocks added in. All I hope is Elle's approves.

Tisha :D

Here is the trellis for the grapes to grow on finished up to the best of my abilities.

If you would like, I can change out this border I would be glad to do that. If you find it too busy I can change it for something plain & simple.

Thanks.

Very nice Tisha!!!

Mary

That border looks fine to me - to be honest I couldn't see where you had an issue with it. Yes it certainly looks the business to me. I am sure Patti will like it too.
I am working on your centre next - can't wait to get my mitts on it LOL.

Tisha

Well ty Mary - taking a bow LOL :wink:


Tisha

Mary..Mary...Mary...thank you!!!!

I love the trellis, what a great idea! I like your grape growing applique idea. I'm pretty sure that once she is home I can start something in that lower left corner that will cover the double white trellis.. (Thats just a "design opportunity you know!! :wink: ~I do lots of those myself!) I'm really excited...one more round and she's coming home to Mama!!!

Did I say that I liked it???? Thanks so much!

Patti

Tisha, love your addition to Elle's and I'm sure she will too! I think your color choices are great and her quilt is going to enjoy some beautiful quilting on it. It has some great spaces for that ! (hint hint Elle...you better start practicing now!! :wink: )

Patti

I'm so glad you like it. I really like the idea of grapes growing and covering from one round into the next.

It will be fun to see what the others come up with.

I really like the idea Mary. I have some of the original vine fabric left and I've saved all the grape fabrics..so I have somethings to work with. Now..while I wait for her to come home...my brain might explode!.... :shock:

WOW!! Those are awesome!!! Great job on both!!!

2 Doods, I got your package today.

Anyone have suggestions of what to do? Hmmmmm Decisions decisions.

Mary, see that is just perfectly lovely.

Judy's center went out to Mona May 1st

Terri..I got Steph's center today!!!! Its very pretty!! Now..what to do...what to do...ok folks...any ideas to throw my way would be appreciated!!

Hey Mary...I don't know the whole answer, but I would bring back the gold and rust colors to the next round somehow.
