Round Robins....

Over the past few years, I have participated in several Round Robins...and have enjoyed them all. This particular piece I was involved in a few years ago, and I really don't think I had a "THEME". There were to be 9 sitchers, some from Canada, locally actually, and some from the US. During the course of the RR one girl dropped out, so I actually stitched two squares myself. This Round Robin actually hangs in my sewing room now.....I had the frame made by a cross-stitch shop that has since closed. The frame is a dark blue..(I think I went by DMC colour 931). I told my fellow stitching Blogger that I would post a photo of this today.Speaking of Round Robins, I thought I'd also post this photo...also in my sewing room. This is another Round Robin that I did several years ago, it is Lizzie Kate's seasons and this one went from me, to the US, over to England and back to me. I really like this one too and had the frames made for it, and the same colour DMC. I'm not sure why one photo is showing blurry, it really isn't in person.

I haven't done any RR's for a few years......I may get back to it at some point, but for now, I enjoy just stitching what I want, when I want.

Take care and have a great Wednesday.
