Stay At Home Round Robin

 Also known as SAHRR ...

I had a bit of difficulty understanding the prompt for round one until I realized I could choose my own block, based on the first letter of my name.  So I went to Judy Hopkins' 501 Rotary-Cut Quilt Blocks for inspiration.  I settled on London Roads.


I had already decided that my starting block needed a frame, so my interpretation of London Roads fit that bill.  But, instead of a one-way road around the block, I ended up with two two-way streets and two blind alleys!


What should have been a simple fix of turning two corners took me half a day.  Don't ask me why.  I guess the brain fog had returned.  Anyway, this is the result:


I will probably have to add a filler strip to bring it to a divisible size, but I'll wait to see what the next prompt is going to be.

  6. Nice, Libby! I have Judy's blocks as three separate books and refer to them, especially the first, frequently.
