To all rowers,
On December 7, 2015 Lotti posted spreadsheets to enable everyone to know who they were sewing a row for on any month during our Robin. The post numbers are 134489, 134493, and 134494. So, if during the upcoming months you lose your notes just find these post numbers and you'll find your info once again.
THIS ROW ROBIN IS NOW UNDERWAY.
Feel free to follow us and post comments, encourage the rowing, and ask questions that you may have.
Very few rules and guidelines.
Rows are to be 6 1/2" (or less) by 36 1/2" long. Please post your row by the end of each
The ROWING begins January, 2016. If you have any questions contact me. All information should have been rec'd by each member.
Rosemary- leaves, not all maple! PLEASE see her posts # 133355 and 133406
Geneva- Flavor of You, batiks preferred, 6" or less by 36"
Lotti- The World Is Bright & Beautiful, enjoy yourself, have fun
Terrie- Home Is Where The Heart is
Luann- flavor of you,
Cathy- bright, cheerful, perhaps symbolic to your area of the world, she's easy to please
Andrée- At the Beach, any cheerful colors, please no obviously black backgrounds
Wendy- birds
Jennifer- trees, or a part there of, or a critter in the tree, be inspired. Not a big fan of civil war or 1920s fabrics
Heather- beach/ocean colors, any style block or row
Brenda- sun, sand, saltwater
Kathy- flavor of you
Barb- flavor of you
Marilyn- mixed colors and scrappy
Dawn- winter, snowflakes, etc
Dorothy- bright, happy, flavor of you
Limbania - jewel tones, maker's choice
Rosemarie - beach, sand
Happy Rowing,
Luann

I will need all info back from participants by Oct 25, 2015. Then I'll be able to get it out to everyone and they can start the designing process. This way, if you have extra time before Jan's start date and you want to work on something ahead of time, you can.
Terrie,
That's what I'm hoping for. If 12 people join we will exchange for 12 months, if 10 people then it's a 10 month, and if it's 14 we'll go for 14 months!! So, thinking on that if it went for 12 months, if you sewed all of your rows into one strip set, it would be about 6 feet long/tall. I would probably put 8 together, sash around them then add the next 4, one to each side with some sort of setting blocks in the corners. More than 12? Hmmm,, I'll think on that.
Looking forward to getting everyone's info so I can get it coordinated and passed along to everyone. Remember, the sooner I get it, the sooner you get your info and can start the process!
Happy stitching,
Luann

Rows for me too. When I first read about the suggestions of a theme my mind went completely blank and I wondered what on earth would I choose :huh: thinking that this was starting to get too hard inch: After a bit of not thinking about it the idea came to me of leaves, it could be spring leaves, autumn leaves, leaf print fabrics in some other type of block completely. Any technique that is your favourite. Just NOT 12 rows of pieced maple leaves please :blink:
Actually I could then incorporate them into a king size bedspread that DH mentioned that I should make, so it could be expanded to leaves on water/rivers, because the theme he asked for was a wilderness hunting & canoeing one. That way I would get to snuggle under all of your love & best wishes :woohoo:

I am in too. I think every other month is more realistic for me. We are talking 36 1/2" x 6 1/2" for the rows. I wouldn't know what to do with an endlessly long quilt. Is there a limit here? I am thinking 6- 8 rows would be a good size for me to find space and a more realistic commitment for exchanging. At the same time, I'd love one from everyone but don't want to bite off more than I can chew.

What if we 'capped' the enrollment like in the WOTTROT and if more members join, then we could just join 2 groups like we did then?
I also do not know what I would do with a 6 foot long 3 foot long piece of quilt. Could we make the row various widths?
Luann, how many have shown an interest so far?

Not sure what my theme would be, but I've been thinking what I would like from others. I think I would want something representative of themselves or their home area. Maybe it would be good for participants to describe what they would be like to make to share. Ofcourse, that may take the challenge out of being pushed into doing something different than what you normally do. Just an idea.

I'm definitely in. Luann, email going to you as soon as this post is submitted :woohoo:
I've already decided on my theme/name before i started thinking, it's going to be called: "THE WORLD IS BRIGHT & WONDERFUL"
And the specs for type is: ENJOY YOURSELF & HAVE FUN!
And the add on comment is: if life-issues get in the way - feel free to send me a 36 1/2" strip of fabric instead and I'll use that!
Row size:
36 1/2" or so long
6 1/2 (or less) high (not at all fussed with the height)
:silly:
Suggestion:
For those who are scared of ending up with too big a quilt, maybe you could specify a shorter length / smaller strip ?

What, sweet innocent, little me! :kiss:

Besides if we get too many rows for lengthways we could always put them sideways to widen it.
Lotti's sounds like it will be fun.
