SAHRR ... Stay at Home Round Robin. I began this project when they first posted the challenge last year. Since they are doing a new version this year, I decided to follow along. This style of project is great encouragement for spreading your wings with techniques and design.

Here is my center with a few rounds from 2021 - 20-1/2 inch square
This month I combined rounds 1 and 2 together into one round. I had some leftover peaky and spike units (half diamonds) from a storm at sea quilt I made a few years ago. I had 4 large (6 inch) drunkard path blocks also leftover from another project. I decided to join them into diamonds and use coping strips to make it all fit into one border.
Here is my project now. it measures 32-1/2 inches square.
I'm joining these linky partys this week. Please be sure to visit them to see what other creative quilters are sharing.

ReplyDeleteI love the diamond border design. It really framed the center up nicely. Thanks for sharing with Oh Scrap!
ReplyDeleteYour leftover blocks fit right in with last year's start! That's looking great, Kat!
ReplyDeleteOh, wow! That was a surprising combo, Kat. It made for such a dramatic border! Looking forward to where our next prompt will take us.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love this!! These two blocks work so well together and make a really dynamic border! I never would have thought to put them together but it's brilliant!
ReplyDeleteHow fun! Such a creative idea!
ReplyDeleteIt looks good, Kat!
ReplyDeleteGreat use of leftover blocks. I see you did the half blocks for diamonds too. I need to finish sewing on two borders but something else comes first. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteOf all the SAHRR yours is the most pleasing. Love the Southwest colors! This will be a beautiful quilt!

ReplyDeletewe did a round robin 2 or 3 years back in quilt guild. It was so interesting to see what others added to the rounds on the others quilts. My top is now part of the current UFO challenge we are doing in guild.
