[Norma Herbold's Round Robin Quilt]

Norma Herbold's Round Robin Quilt

Norma made the star in the center of this quilt and three other quilters added borders to it. The last quilter used the border design from Symphony, which was designed by Patty Oliver-Matz of Weaverville. Norma Herbold's site is: www.olypen.com/normah/index.htm

[Rose Marie's Round Robin Quilt]

Rose Marie Straw's Round Robin Quilt
Redding, CA

Rose Marie took a class from me some years ago. She used her block from Celtic Medallion III in a round robin that our local guild did along with several other guilds. A very dear friend who I will miss very much, since Rose Marie passed away at the beginning of January 2001.

[Patriotic Star Round Robin]

Patriotic Star
60"(152 cm) square

I made the feathered star in a class by Sharyn Craig. The first border (Red) is by Martha Hilbert, the second (Blue) by Ann Arbuckle and the third (pinwheels) by Rose Marie Straw. I added the last border to finish it off. It's machine quilted.

[picture of Scrap Star Round Robin]

Scrap Star
44" (112 cm) square

The center block came from Judy Martin's Block book. I used scraps to make it. This was a between guilds Round Robin, so the borders were done by quilters from other guilds. The first was by Nancy Randall of Marysville, the second by Debra Luis of the Valley Quilt Guild in Yuba City and the third by Millie Berryhill of the Valley Quilt Guild in Yuba City.

[Four Bows Round Robin]

The First Four Bows Block used in a Round Robin
46" (117 cm) square

When I designed Four Bows, I sent it off to a block contest. It wasn't accepted, so I used the sample I had made for this Round Robin. The first border is by Melanie Harmon of the Valley Quilt Guild of Yuba City, the second by Nancy Firth of the Chester Piecemakers and the third by Jan Dole, a long-range member of the Quilter's Sew-Ciety of Redding.

Luckily, I kept my drawings, so now Four Bows is a pattern that I have redone. The new samples from this block are on my Quilt Patterns. It's a neat design and makes a wonderful quilt!
