Mini Round Robin
That's great Sandi!
Here is the link to the mini RR. I loved the swap, it pushed me creatively, but it was really hard for me that not everyone got their center back. http://home.comcast.net/~quiltngryhn...niRR_2004.html ~NS |

Kristie,
Let Melissa know. She might have an updated directory and could get in touch with her for you. I'd almost given up hope and they arrived unexpectedly. -- Sandi in New Westminster B.C.

I am gad you have received yours! Kristie "shhdesigns" wrote in message news:l3X5f.244336$oW2.63409@pd7tw1no... What a surprise I got tonight when I checked my mail. I had a package from Sue in Winnipeg with both Lizzy Taylor's and my mini round robins! What delightful tops they are, I can't wait to sandwich and start quilting on mine. Lizzy, I'll try and get my borders on quickly and get it for you for an early Christmas present. Melissa, do you still have the WebPages up with the pictures of the other groups? I don't think I have it bookmarked and would like to send you a picture if it is still up and running. Thanks to everyone in my group,Lizzy in England, Helen in England, Michelle Pope in Newfoundland, and Sue Bewick in Winnipeg, well done ladies. -- Sandi in New Westminster B.C.

I will look for it - my digital photos are woefully un-organized, so it
will take some time, but it's on my list and I'll let you know if I find it or I think it is lost. Best, NS Kristie Kinney wrote: I would love to see a picture of it. Thank you!!

I hate to sound so clueless, but how does a round-robin work? Can
someone explain? Patti in Seattle "forgiveness is the fragrance the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it" **mark twain** |

Mini Round Robin
Really quick and basic explaination - you design the centre panel and pass
it on to successive quilters, who all add a border. You - in turn - get each of their quilts (in various stages of construction) to add a border. So you will add the first border to someone else's quilt in stage one, the second border to a different quilt in stage two, and so on. Eventually your centre panel comes back to you with the appropriate number of borders added. It is usual to agree a time frame for each stage - maybe pass work to next person on the list on the first Monday of five successive months, or maybe take eight weeks from receipt. Many also include some fabric with their centre panel to be worked into the borders. There are variations of course. But this is a group activity that is best undertaken only after everyone has agreed to all the "rules" for the RR - maybe with a "quilter's contract" (written guidelines for a group quilt). For example, I have taken part in RRs where being late cost the tardy a fatqtr for each other member of the RR group - an excellent incentive (LOL) Point is - you finish with a quilt that has been made by a group of friends and that will be a complete surprise to you. There are links in current threads to show RRs that have been made thru RCTQ You will have gathered from ongoing threads here that it can be "upsetting" when participants fail to keep to their agreement to undertake a Round Robin, particularly when this is without any explaination to other participants.. -- Cheryl http://community.webshots.com/user/witchofthewest cawaites@netconnectDOTcomDOTau "catsatararat" on Yahoo msgr "Patti S" wrote in message ...

I love the idea of having the FQ or FE penalty for being late! In a yahoo
group that I'm a member of, we all wanted to do a RR but because some of the members that were wanting to participate were known for being late and others had had problems with their RR's never showing up again, we decided not to do the robin :-( Sometimes lateness cannot be helped but normally the only excuse would be hospitalization. What a great idea! -- Hugs, Kerensa A good friend will come and bail you out of jail...but, a true friend will be sitting next to you saying, "Wow...that was fun!"
