Yours Truly Round Robin, Step 1


My Carol Doak Yahoo group is beginning a round robin - but this is more like a do-it-yourself mystery. Carol gives us instructions, and we decide how to follow them. The first step was to create a center block - and we got to choose which one and how large it would be. She'll then tell us what to do next - adding layers and borders and using more of her designs as we go along, till we end up with a quilt.

Since I don't want to make a quilt that's too large, I started with a small block - 4 inches - from her book Easy Machine Paper Piecing. I was able to use scraps from my batiks basket, as I plan to use all batiks for this little project.
