Quilt Festival

Here is my entry for the Blogger's Quilt Festival hosted by Amy at Park City Girl. There are now over 500 quilts to see, go check it out.

In 2005, I signed up to participate in a Round Robin that was being hosted on HGTV's message board. We made our center block and sent our robins on their journey. I decided to make Evan's Star that I got from Quilter's Cache. Other than a basic paper pieced block to learn the how to, this was my first attempt at paper piecing. I added the burgundy and cream border so that I could remove the paper on the back of the block. I have to say, after all was said and done, it turned out pretty good.
Every 4-6 weeks, a new package would arrive at my house awaiting a new round. It was fun and sometimes challenging to add a border that would flow nicely with the rest of the quilt.
I don't remember the time frame exactly, but around early Summer 2006, my robin flew home. I was so excited to get that box open and see how my center block grew.

Here is a corner to show a little closer look.

And here is the full top.

I will have to measure it and get that posted.

I'm sorry ladies, I don't have everyone's name right here that worked on this. I do have it in a box in my sewing room and will add it here when it gets unpacked. I will go searching and get it on here soon.

Thanks for looking around.
