The other day I wrote about the Improv Round Robin<\/a>, starting from the middle rather than the beginning.<\/p>\n

The details of this round robin can be found in a blog post<\/a> on the BAMQG site and in the book by Sherri Lynn Wood called the Improv Handbook for Modern Quilters<\/a>.<\/p>\n

IRR Start<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The basic idea is that you spend 20 minutes on each round, including the start. I had to pick out fabrics and a signature fabric. I used Queen Street by Jennifer Paganelli<\/a> and my signature fabric is a Philip Jacobs. You can see my signature fabric on the bottom of my starting piece.<\/p>\n

The signature fabric is a fabric that we add to each piece we work on to know that we worked on it. I just had to use a Philip Jacobs as it is uniquely distinct to me. Many of the other modern quiltmakers don’t use Philip Jacobs fabrics that I have seen.<\/p>\n

Wanting to try for a piece that was not square, I made my piece long and thin. Cutting is difficult for me at the moment, so I gave myself a bit more time on that piece, but then sewed like a demon so as not to break too much of the rules.<\/p>\n

I kept looking at the Flying Geese<\/a> TFQ and I have been exchanging. I decided to incorporate some of them into this piece, but the rest are just squares and rectangles. The solid is supposed to be the background.<\/p>\n

Michelle was kind enough to send me a photo of my start since I, apparently, forgot to take a photo of it.\u00a0 She also sent a photo of what she added to the piece, so I can see how it is progressing.<\/p>\n

I like that more of the Flying Geese have been incorporated.<\/p>\n
