Round Robins Returned!

Francis made the center block for my round robin quilt, borders made by Kay R, Kay C and Mary P.

All of those who participated in the Gallipolis Old and Young Quilters’ round robin challenge returned the finished quilt tops for our September meeting. They were beautiful!  I was delighted at how each team found fabrics and chose border designs to complement the center block!

One thing I really enjoyed was the chance to try out new skills on a small project.  For instance, I paper pieced the outer border of Rhonda’s quilt and applique’d a vine on Kay R’s quilt, and worked outside my usual color palette for Jenny’s quilt.

I really enjoy quilting with these ladies, and every meeting I like to go around to each table to see what they are doing.

Check out this slideshow to see all the round robins, as well as a few pictures of the members working on projects.
