a few more robins to entice you...

I just thought I'd throw out a few Robin photos to get the juices flowing...  this first one is a project that I quilted and bound and then sent off to its final owner

the next one was done by an online group I used to be in -- I made the center block

 this was one of the Spring Fling Round Robin projects from a few years ago
 and this is another.  I made the center block on this one...
 Here's another project from an online group I'm in
 and last but not least, this was made by one of my local mini-groups -- they were not at all happy with my center block, but I just had to do it!

4 friends commented...:

These are great Round Robin quilts. I'd say the group handled the smiley face challenge brilliantly. The tomato one must have produced lots of comment too, but it's wonderful..

I love your tomato quilt--that's a fun design. Thanks for posting the IPQF quilts. It's nice to see what's going on in the bigger quilt world.

If I was sewing more than once a year, I'd jump in and join you. But until I can manage my time better, I can't commit to anyone/thing else. But I look forward to seeing all the stuff go by in blogland!
