"PERSONAL ROUND ROBIN"

2007 BLOCK OF THE MONTH QUILT - Evening Group:

The Evening Group substituted a Personal Round Robin project for the BOM project in 2007 and created some awesome wallhangings. Completed works are shown.

Join us in sewing the BOM!

• Every month a new instruction sheet is provided for the next month's block
• Guild members construct the block during the month and then bring to the next meeting
• For each block submitted you enter your name in for the draw
• All blocks are displayed at the guild meeting
• The more blocks you make the better your chances to win and keep the blocks for your own creation.

Joining in is a good way to develop skills if you are a beginner or make a fast & easy project if you are more experienced. You can, at the same time, make a block for the monthly draw and some more for the Guild's Community quilts.
