My gosh the time has just flown by since my last post .
Today I want to share about the crazy quilt  round robin I participated in .
My first round robin . R.R. 6
There were five of us in the R.R.   each of us made a block and mailed to the next person on the list once a month after we added our stitching etc.

Hazel's Block

I was last to work on this one so it is all finished in this top picture.

This one was challenging for me since I was last I had to try and coordinate with what all the others had already done and try to use colors and a theme to go with the rest of the block and pull it all together.
 It is a really fun and whimsical block.
The top green and orange section and the brown section with the spider web are the areas I worked on.


Renee's Block

I love the way this block turned out the Pictures just do not do these justice.
 Renee cross stitched the beautiful center rose .
I added a dragonfly and wisteria vine in the top left corner and white lace flower applique below and added pink beads in the center.



 Mardeen's Block
I was the third one to work on this beautiful block Renee and Shannon added wonderful flowers ,trees they both do awesome stitching.
I added the flowers and the ducks bumm Ha ha   ..she is bent over trying to find some bugs for her little ones.



Shannon's Block

This was the first block I worked on The bright colors were so pretty and a challenge for me since I have used mostly pastel colors.



My naked block

This is what my block looked like when I sent it off .
I will post an update when I recieve it so you can see the diference.
 
It was challenging but also alot of fun and I learned alot and really enjoyed getting to see each persons work on the blocks.
