You may (or may not!) remember my block that started the rotation for the most recent Round Robin exchange. Fairly unassuming 8" little fella that left me long ago & had very few 'rules' attached to it.
The primary one: not to be wider than a certain measurement, as I wanted to be able to use it as a hanging in various areas of choice wall real estate. So compared to many that were included in this project mine remained much smaller--and looks the least 'finished' of any in the bunch (currently it's about 27" x 33").
The little traveler just returned home to me last weekend--so we're just getting reacquainted after about 15 months on the road. I'm thrilled! My ten team mates really pulled the stops & let their imagination go--I love that part! There are many embellishments, along with paper-piecing additions, three dimensional items, & Seminole piecing. It has so much potential--so many options--for completion. I can hardly wait! (but I'll have to for a little while at least...got get some other items finished & the quarter complete!)
You can click on the 'Round Robin' label at the bottom of the post to see the rest of the projects in this round--at least at the state they were in when I touched them! Everyone seems quite content with their projects when they returned--although many were shaking their heads at mine, wondering "now what will you do?!". I think it's an honor that they broke out of the box on my behalf--regardless of how uncomfortable they may have been! Stay tuned for 'the rest of the story' later in the year...

i see 3 stairstep squares at the right base. are these part of the piece, which looks like a heart except for those 3 stair steps?
or is this a runner and it's bunched up for the camera? please reveal!
At this point, the only finished edge is section with the Prairie Points (or aptly put: the stair steps!). The remainder are all raw edges, awaiting the next step(s). So, no, not bunched up--it's lying flat for the photo. I know: it looks odd now, but just wait... 8-)
