Round Robin



Which Center?

Oh the decisions! This is the first block of a Round Robin project with our guild. I had difficulty deciding how it should go together.  Here is what it looked like when it came back to me.

Here are the other Round Robbin quilts from our team.



It was an amazing experience and so interesting that they all came out so different eventhough the same four people worked on them.

In Business - First Quilts


Our friend Mary from Wisconsin brought us two quilts she made while here in Texas this Winter.  One is a graduation gift for her granddaughter. It is made of beautiful batiks. We used an edge to edge Dragonflies and Valentines quilt pattern with a beautiful variegated thread.





The second, is also a graduation gift for another granddaughter who was graduating from the Airforce Academy.  On this quilt we used an edge to edge Mendering Star quilt pattern.



 Thank you Mary for trusting us with your quilts!


Quilting School
