My first round of our Round Robin project is finished and ready to pass on to Jane in Sitka. I received this center, which wasn't quite square. I did my best to square it up, but it's still a little "off" if you look at it straight on. I guess it should have had a V-8.
Now on to a UFO....
Allyson, how do you come up with these borders! Your colors and design could not be more perfect, Wonderful Job! I pity the person who follows your borders.....

The other commenters are right---your round is perfect! The colors, the fabric selection, the block pattern--all beautiful. And how you managed to square things up is amazing!

You did a beautiful job. Love the color/pattern selections you chose. Purple scares me tho! My niece came to me with an armful of purple fabric and a pattern that she liked, and silly me...I didn't question where the fabric came from (i.e., it's quality). Long story short..the purple bled all over the white. Fortunately, it merely turned the white a pale, pale lavender...no spots...and she was still happy with her quilt.

You did an awesome job with that border following the center. I would have been at a complete loss. Will we ever get to see the finished result?

It looks beautiful. What a great job. I hope the owner likes it as well as all of us.

Wow is right--what a stunning addition. Great counterpoint to the applique. Hope the next person does your work justice!
