Reveal of Stay at Home Round Robin Quilt

This year I participated once again in the annual Stay at Home Round Robin design challenge. I love this challenge and this is the 4th time I’ve participated.


My quilt will be donated (most likely) to Quilts for Kids. It started out with a donated orphan block, the classic “Card Trick” block. I switched out the green “card” for purple to match the novelty print of vegetables (I had one yard) in my stash. From there, I followed the weekly design prompts/challenges from Gail and friends. Here is my finished quilt.


My friend Ruby is holding up the quilt. We opted for the shadows because the sun was so bright and the trees don’t have their spring leaves yet. 

The pic below shows the simple checked backing and binding. 


I took my time on the quilting - done on my domestic Bernina - and showed that a couple weeks ago. But here is a repeat of a couple parts as a refresher. 


Above: leaves and curls in the center before the first stop border. Below: simple loops in the stars.



Thanks so much for visiting my blog, and thanks to all the ladies who hosted the Stay at Home Round Robin this year. And if you’re a quilter, I encourage you to visit the final quilt parade link party HERE to see all the wonderful interpretations of this fun quilt-along!

There were so many different interpretations of the prompts for the borders. Yours is one of the prettiest (and of course I like bright colors).

Smart choice to switch out the green card! Love your interpretation of the various prompts.

I love the bright orange colors in your quilt! It's sure to be a bright delight for any kid. I am impressed with your ability to FMQ on a domestic machine too!
