The second border assignment for the 2024 Stay at Home Round Robin (SAHRR) was announced yesterday. Here is the direction we got from Anja: "using only 2 colours, you can do whatever you want for this round." Well, that left it wide open. Sometimes that can make things harder to decide, but surprisingly enough, I didn't have any problems.
Our previous assignment was signature blocks, and I made 13 of them in various greens. I liked the way they looked with my main block and decided to make more with red fabrics. The red blocks were all finished the very same day that the round 2 assignment was announced! None of the signature blocks are sewn together yet, since I'm not sure how they will be used in my final quilt.
This week's link-up is at Anja's blog, Anja Quilts, and the entire 2024 SAHRR schedule is below.
January 15: Center block: Gail @ Quilting Gail
January 22: 1st Round: Wendy @ Pieceful Thoughts of My Quilting Life
January 29: 2nd Round: Anja @ Anja Quilts
February 5: 3rd Round: Emily @ The Darling Dogwood
February 19: 5th Round: Gail @ Quilting Gail
February 26: 6th Round: Kathleen @ Kathleen McMusing
March 18: Parade: showing all of your finished SAHRRs!
Next Monday we will find out another new border assignment. It's unlikely that I will finish it as quickly as this week's round, but who knows what might happen!
Happy quilting!

How neat is that that your plan meshed perfectly with the prompt.
ReplyDeleteThe red and green signature blocks work really well as that second border.
ReplyDeleteOh, I really like the red and green signature blocks! This makes me want to make a Christmas SAHRR now - haha!
