so i was reading the post about UK round robin and noticed a few people saying they not in UK but interested in doing one

i have done international ones before and would love to do another

so if your interested and happy to post internationally let me know i can organise one once we have enough people

i was thinking maybe 4,6 or 8 depending on interest but i dont mind arranging more than one if lots of interest

just reply here or send me a PM with where your from and i will PM people back with more details etc to organize once there enough people to start

Before I express interest, which I am thinking I might be, how exactly does a round robin cross stitch work?

basically you have a piece of aida and seperate it into however many sections as there are people in the round robin
then you choose a theme for your project i.e cats or flowers and each person stitches a design that fits your theme into one of the sections and then sends it on to the next person so while your stitching on the other peoples projects they are stitching on yours

then the final person sends the finished piece back to its orginal owner

there would be agreed dates to when to send your project and you tell the group when u have posted and recieve each project so everyone knows where their piece is

they are very fun and i find theygive me a chance to do some of the smaller designs i wouldnt normally use from magazines and the likes

This actually sounds really fun and I wouldn't mind participating. I will definitely keep an eye on this. And I am willing to ship anywhere.

I've never done one of these before, and I'd love to try it out. Please consider adding me.

I live in the US and will ship anywhere.

great we know have 5 people interested

what are peoples opinions on maybe havstaring first post date after christmas is out the way giving us plenty of time to coose our own theme and get our sections marked out on aida and own first section stitched ?

i was thinking a 3 -4 week turn around to each section
