UPDATE: All are home except luvquilting07(Deb) and SewCarolyn's. Mommyquilts has them and we are waiting for her to send them on. She was contacted on June 25th and again on July 20th. Waiting to hear from her or hear that they've been sent and/or received.


This will be a 4th of July Round Robin.

WHAT IS A ROUND ROBIN?

Basically, you make a medallion (size to be determined by owner) using a Fourth of July/Independence Day theme. Then you (the owner) send it to the next person in your group. They add a border and send it to the next person on the list and so forth. When you get your medallion back, it will have 3 borders on it and be ready to sandwich and quilt as you like.

Here is the thread from the Christmas RR from 2008
https://www.quiltinaday.com/community/t ... 2017#12017

Does that answer all your questions? If not, let me know and I'll answer them if I can.

**************************************

Signup by March 1st. First round (medallion) ready to be mailed April 1st.

Medallions ready and mailed by April 1st - DONE - Good job quilters!
First Round done and mailed by April 15th
Second Round done and mailed by May 1st
Third Round done and mailed by May 15th

Keep stitchn,

I will find the thread for the Christmas one that we did and post it for you. It was a bit more rushed than this one. I wanted to start this early enough that there aren't any hiccups because of rushing to get them done.

Found it! https://www.quiltinaday.com/community/t ... 2017#12017
