Christy's round robin
Melissa is here! And her sister Christy. Melissa is doing a book signing for her new book and she has brought several of her beautiful quilts along. It's a hot day with a little breeze so we should have a great quilt show.
And here is Christy's Round Robin Block! When I found out she was coming for the quilt show, I got busy and got my border on so she could take it home with her today. Long day Busy day...
Have a great weekend!

Christy's Quilt
All done...well not entirely...I need to take out the basting stitches...but with any luck, I can do that tonight and drop this in the mail to Patty before we leave for vacation tomorrow morning.
I hope you like it Christy...when you mentioned a 1930s feel...that always makes me think of hexagons...and it was super fun to use some of the vintage fabric I have tucked away into various boxes around my sewing room.
Thanks for a fun Round Robin ladies!

Christy
OK...so I think we are quite behind on your quilt Christy, but Im working on it!!
Here is my idea...I wanted to make sure you don't hate it first!!
my warning: I have never made hexagons before...(but Im enjoying it!!)
I dug into my vintage scraps hoping I would find fabrics you like. Im never quite sure if it's from the 30s, 40s, 50s, etc....but Im sticking with reds, blues, and pinks....
What do you think ladies?
I think the background fabric is vintage also....again...not sure how 'vintage'...but its darling.

All Done!
I finished! The binding on my table quilt got nailed down late last night, so here are picture proof, front and back. I really enjoyed the round robin process, so I'm going to encourage some of my local quilters to start a round robin quilt. wish me luck! And I really like that backing - all those little bitty half square triangles, all perfectly matched, with much thanks to designers Minick and Simpson !-D
