I've had an entire month to figure out the next move,and as always I wait until the last possible moment to get my round done.
16 1/2" x 16 1/2" Starting Size |
I like how Emily added the three flying geese in the first round. The colors pulled straight from the dots.
Whatever will I do!!
Why...add more color of course! I pulled Kona Capri, Moda Lime (I think), Kona Storm and I'll use Kona Snow for the background of my contribution.
These blocks are 2 1/2" unfinished and are the same size as Libby's center block size. It would work perfectly for my idea.
The chevron block was the first block I made. I wanted to add more dark blue, but didn't want to overwhelm the rest of the block.
This is a perfect combination of colors! Lime green is my favorite color and it's also one of the colors in the dot fabric. More colors, more blue, more dots!
24 1/2" x 24 1/2" - After Round Two |
Libby, I hope you like it!
I'll be handing this off today and also picking up the next round! Round Three!

Jayne, this looks fantastic! I'm thinking that I could have never found any ideas what to do. You are so talented! This kind of design is out of my comfortzone so perhaps I should challenge my self to try. Thank you for sharing the process! Is there somewhere a list of the members of this group so we could see what others are making? x Teje
ReplyDeleteIt took me a long time to come up with my contribution to the Round Robin. It wasn’t easy! One of the things I am liking about participating is it does take you out of your comfort zone and it does push you. I’m very curious about my next round…and excited! We have two groups for the Round Robin and not everyone blogs. I’ll have to take pictures at our meeting and share!
DeleteGreat job Jayne ! Your round matches very well the whole and adds dynamism.
ReplyDeleteI wanted to stay with the theme of the block. Squares and angles (flying geese). I’m pretty pleased with the results and can now start planning the next block that comes my way!
DeleteOh I like it, it makes the centre appear to float, complementing it without overpowering it. Perfect.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely loving it, Jayne!
ReplyDeleteI love the addition of the blue. Your round compliments the rest of the design without be overpowering. Well done. I found each round gets harder or should I say scarier...not wanting to add a round that doesn't work.
ReplyDeleteI love your addition! It definitely looks like a party!
ReplyDeleteYou nailed it, head on!!
ReplyDeleteOMG, when I saw what you added, I was stunned by how PERFECT it is! Congrats on a design well done.
ReplyDeleteI think you did it justice! Very nice!
ReplyDeleteI like it! I'm glad you went back to the off white background.
ReplyDeleteI love the balance in this top so far--and how using the snow in your round makes the rest of the quilt float. Now I'm wondering: do you pass on the dot fabric to the next person, or one of the other fabrics?
ReplyDeleteFantastic addition and such a good balance of colors. I hope we can see how all these turn out when they are done!
ReplyDeleteI think every round in a round robin is stressful, because it comes with it's own unique challenge as you try to make everything look cohesive. Jayne, you are rocking it. What you added in this round is perfect, the fabrics and the design. I cant' wait to see what you do with the next one you receive.
ReplyDeleteI love the solids that coordinate with the dot fabric! That is really looking great!
ReplyDeleteYour addition enhanced the starting block, like you brought popsicles to the barbecue party. Sweet, cool and refreshing!!!
ReplyDeleteIt is definitely a party! The colors are lively and the dark blue chevrons frame it and echo the center. Great design.
ReplyDeleteAmazing Jayne. I love how you added another design layer. Great job!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, that's smashing! I think it's hard to pull of a strong round robin, but you guys are rocking it!
ReplyDeleteI really like what you did and it looks more than 2 rounds already. I found the last round the hardest as I was framing the quilt to make it feel complete while adding to it at the same time!
