Round Robin, first border

Posted on October 23, 2008 by Anjea

You might remember the bug fabric block I made for another round robin. I decided that I would keep up with the progress of my block, as I have that group on my Google Reader, so I’d see it anyways. I LOVE the first border that Carrie put on my block! She used the fabrics I sent for the stars and green border, but chose the black from her stash. I think it looks great!

I’ve been working on a paper-piecing project for the Miniature Booty Swap. I found the *perfect* pattern for my partner’s preferences. I enlarged it, added seam allowances (silly pattern didn’t have them!) and I’m about halfway done. I’m glad I did, too, not just for the finished size of the mini quilt, but because I can’t imagine some of those teeny-tiny pieces in just a 12″ block! 😯 I can’t post pictures, though – I will once she’s received her quilt. 😀 I love the results of PPing, but I don’t care for the doing part of it. I find it tedious and think that it requires too much concentration.

    Love the quilt so far.
    I’m paper piecing my doll quilt aswell. But I’m doing 4″ blocks. I love PPing and am a glutton for punishment I think.
    love and hugs Gina xxx

    I can’t wait to see your doll quilt! I give props to you for PPing such small blocks!

    WOW, the stars are a perfect add-on to your center block!!

    I need to work on my own booty partner!

    I know, right? I love it so far! I can’t wait to see what everyone else does to it.
