Summer DYB 2010

The Summer DYB Round Robin actually started in the latter part of 2009 and finished up in 2010.  A DYB, you may remember, is a “Do Your Block” round robin, where each participant pieces six 6” blocks.  Then, as the blocks make the rounds, each of the other five stitchers complete one entire block.  When the blocks return home to their owner, five of six blocks are complete, leaving the owner to finish the sixth block.  It’s a great way for stitchers to really get “into” a theme!  


The talented stitchers for this Summer DYB were Karrin, Rebecca, Lyn, Rita, Arlene and Cobi (with Kerry doing some Angel work for her).
