Round Robin

Karol H.'s round robin treasure was a Quilt Ladies embroidery in redwork that Karol had done.  Then we were to add a round of borders.

I created a few Center Stage 3 3/4" unfinished blocks.  I miscalculated initially and ended up with more blocks than I really needed.  I guess that is better than miscalculating and ending up with too few blocks.  The Center Stage block is from the New Classic Patchwork book by Yoko Saito.

The little blocks can get a lot of bulk built up in the back because they are so small and there is no where for the seam to lie and be out of the way.  I did end up pressing some of the seams open so that the presser foot on my sewing machine did not get pushed around.
