I am checking in! I have participated in a row robin before.sew much fun. We chose to do our sashing on our own,that way we could place the rows in the order we wanted. My theme is dogs/puppies. I like all dogs, puppies dog fabrics, all blocks,applique. I have chinese sharpei.
,embroidery . I will send a few small scraps of dog fabrics, you can use them or send them to the next robin.

Loooking forward to finding out what your themes are.

cuppy

Hi everyone! This is my second row robin - I loved the first one I was in. Should we select a name for our group? Need some creative ideas.

Cuppy I love your dog theme - I have a German Shepherd and have always had dogs. Have had a West Highland Terrier, Scottish Terrier, Boxer, Chihuhua (not sure about the spelling on that), 2 German Shepherds and a Shepherd/Golden mix.

I haven't totally decided on my theme yet - several ideas rolling around in the old noggin. Will be working over the next week or so to solidfy and start working.

I think we should post pictures as we start to work on things so that everyone can get an idea of what's coming and how their piece is growing. I know I enjoyed that the last robin I was in.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to either post your questions here - I will be on the board 4 - 5 times weekly or send me a PM. I want us to have a fun time with this.

Happy sewing!

Hello ladies. This my first Row Robin and I am looking forward to getting to know all of you as we go along. Like CherylW I have a few ideas going around. How would you all feel about Snow globes? They would not have to be "winter" globes, just something interesting in the globe part.
If that doesn't work for all of you I will come up with something else.
Paula

Well, the globes are out - they are too small and larger one would not be as cute. I will think on it today and come up with something new and let you know.

I like the idea of adding our sashing when the rows come home. Scrapper - have you come up with a theme for yours yet?

@cuppy I did a dog themed quilt for my niece when she graduated last year so I have a couple neat ideas for blocks for you!

I will like what ever you choose. I had a german shepherd when I was a child,then I had 2 chihuahuas, and 2 chinese sharpeis. I adore the scottie dog(quilt dog) I like all dog and puppy fabric, dog houses, all blocks with doggy fabrics
.My row is rather simple, I am waiting on fabric I ordered, should be here any day. I did a row robin several years ago, theme was Kentucky Derby!! Hubby is from Kentucky, What a beautiful quilt, horses and hats.. maybe will try to post a photo.

cuppy

Oooh cuppy - please post the KD quilt pics - it sound lovely.

I have decided to do a star theme and call it Twinkle, Twinkle. There are so many ways to make star blocks that it should make for a wonderful row robin.

I wonder where our other two members are?

Dragonfly -

I love your idea of a star theme. So much can be done with that. Will have to start looking for good fabrics for stars. But then again, need to firm up my theme.

Cheryl

Thanks Cheryl What are you thinking about doing? Maybe we can help with ideas.

Also, I like the idea of sharing pictures as we go. Once I have a couple of my blocks made I will post them but I have to finish a couple things before I can start on them.

Question.....it's a very long story but would any of you ladies be willing to switch groups with another lady?
I'd really appreciate it :)
