Now that we’ve added all our rounds, and hopefully gotten our flimsies quilted, it’s time for a PARADE!! And not just any parade, it’s the Stay at Home Round Robin Parade! Today’s parade is hosted by Gail of Quilting Gail.
I have really enjoyed seeing everyone’s quilt come to life following and interpreting the prompts the co-hosts have given. It has been SEW much fun!! Our quilting community certainly has an abundance of wonderfully talented quilters! In case you missed a clue, and still would like to make a quilt, you can find the prompts for each round on the co-hosts blogs!

I really love how this turned out. In the beginning, I honestly had NO clue how I would add the rounds each co-host had provided. I only knew I wanted the center block to be the Cubes in a Cube block and that I wanted to use Island Batik solids. Finally inspiration struck and I just kept going! It’s great when a plan comes together! LOL
Now without further ado, here is my completed SAHRR 2025. I had a lot of fun playing with ruler work and using Pro-Stitcher for the plain blocks. I fell in love with this motif which is called “Let it Bloom” Block 3 from the Christies (mom/daughter team) at My Creative Stitches.

I used Hobbs Thermore batting, which I think gave the quilting nice definition. It was pieced with Aurifil 50 wt thread and a Schmetz 80/12 needle, which are my go-to products for piecing quilts. I love these Island Batik solids which include: Fuchsia, light grey, black, red, aqua, purple, lime, pink and cobalt, with white for the background and backing.
