Round Robin #3

Round Robin #3 – Butterfly Row!!

After a big hiatus from the last Round Robin— it is time to do another one…don’t you think? 

For Round Robin #3 we are going to be doing it in a ROW pattern instead of doing it around the center block, how about that?

We will be starting May 30th so we need to get right going on this!! I am totally excited. aren’t you?

As usual I will need some help designing this wonderful quilt so here are the dates that are open for YOU to take charge of:

Every two weeks there will be a guest blogger on here introducing herself and her block. At the end, you will have made a fun quilt {size determined by rows added— it’s sort of a mystery that way}

Of course, all along the way there will be prizes for those who complete the sides. 

There will be a drawing each time row instructions are posted. Anyone who posts a picture of a new side since the last drawing will be entered in the next drawing. The row that you post a picture of doesn’t have to be just the previous row. It can be for any of the previous rows that you haven’t posted yet.

You don’t need to do both dates….just one. Don’t want to overwhelm everyone. Here is how it will go— {pretty much the same rules as before. In fact I copy and pasted them.}

• There will be 2 round robins posted each month.
• The 2nd and 4rd Monday of the month
• Each pattern/post  will be for 1 row of the quilt.
• Patchwork Round Robin will last for 4 months. Last round robin post will be in September.

How Each Round Robin Will Work:

• When the 2nd Monday and 4th Monday comes you visit here and find the new post with the new pattern. {I will be the swap boss}
• There will be a quick intro to the designer of the sides  
• You will then add the new border designs to YOUR OWN BLOCK!!! —doesn’t this sound nice? You are in charge of your own fabric, colors, and time.
• Share the photos in the Round Robin Gallery {this is a bit different from earlier round robins– you will need to register to post your photos- registration is FREE}
• There will be a Bi-Monthly Drawing and Winner!! Each time there is a designer/row there will be a drawing.

– Would you like to play along? 

Pattern/Designer

• Do you want to be in charge of a row?
• Tell me what month you want and what week {only 1 time is requested, though you could do more if you like}
• + You will provide something for the giveaway and send it to the winner!
• Designs can be pieced, paper pieced, embroidery or applique. You will need to provide the templates if those are needed.
• Cotton, wool or embroidery will be fine. Just make sure we know what we need in a material list.
• The row doesn’t need to be send to the previous rows.
• Rows can be any size up to 8″ high. The width has to end up at least 52″- 60″ {finished size}. We will fill in the slack at the end. We don’t need to end up with a king size quilt, or do we? No, just kidding.

Designer/Pattern Maker – sign ups will be open until we are full.

Now, before anyone says anything smart like–hey, this isn’t really a round robin…no one is working on mine, i work on mine…i say yup. BUT WAIT!!! There are ‘others’ who are designing what you are putting on your sides…so it will count.

+ I say so.

There will be a list at the end of all those who helped you make your top so you can include them on a label. Does that work? Does that count? Will you still complain, or just go along with my kookie round robin? 

Previous Round Robins Designed by all of you!!!

I really loved it– totally cute!!!

So, who’s in?

FAQ’S Of Round Robin #3

What is a Round Robin quilt?

A Round Robin quilt involves multiple quilters adding borders or sections to a central block, creating a collaborative and unique design.

Do I need special tools to participate?

Basic quilting tools like a rotary cutter, ruler, and sewing machine are enough. Optional tools, like corner trimmers, can help with precision.

Can beginners participate in a Round Robin quilt?

Absolutely! It’s a fun way to learn and grow your skills while collaborating with more experienced quilters.

Can I choose my own fabrics for each round?

Yes! Feel free to select fabrics that match your style, but coordinating colors with previous rounds can enhance the overall look.
