So you have done a round robin? You said it would be nice to do another one.

This thread you're reading features me as one of five designers. You can see my contributions to the doilies here: http://www.craftree.com/projects/1698

If you want to know what the doilies look like before or after my contributions, you could dig back in this thread, or look up the projects of @Coretta, @PattyD, @Tattrldy and @Taryn.

Here is an update on Post #248, which was 5 months ago! I am quoting from that post, and adding some links to projects showing where each doily is.

There are five of us in the Round Robin - myself (I started Doily 1), @Coretta (started Doily 2), @PattyD (started Doily 3), @taryn (started Doily 4) and @tattrldy (started Doily 5).
We agreed that we would each design and tat one or two rounds, then send the doily onwards to the next tatter. I'll call this Stage 1 (doily centre), Stage 2 (added by the next tatter), and so forth. Finally the doily would return to its originator, and she would decide whether to add one final round. The sending order we agreed on was:
Doily 1 : GraceT > Coretta > PattyD > taryn > tattrldy > GraceT
Doily 2 : Coretta > GraceT > tattrldy > PattyD > taryn > Coretta
Doily 3 : PattyD > tattrldy > taryn > Coretta > GraceT > PattyD
Doily 4 : taryn > PattyD > GraceT > tattrldy > Coretta > taryn
Doily 5 : tattrldy > taryn > Coretta > GraceT > PattyD > tattrldy

After some delay, I myself have discharged my obligations to everyone's doilies - see all my contributions here: http://www.craftree.com/projects/1698 So now it just remains for me to receive back the one I started (Doily 1), and see whether I want to add one final round.

However, life intervened - all the doilies are stalled:

Doily 1 between Stage 4 & Stage 5 - my green one with the hexagonal centre (Stage 4 done and instructions shared privately, but doily not posted to next person)
Current status on Craftree: http://www.craftree.com/projects/2152

Doily 2 at Stage 3 or 4 (I think) - Coretta's green one with the six narrow petals in the centre (Stage 3 done, but not sure if it was sent on)
Current status on Craftree: http://www.craftree.com/projects/2083

Doily 3 at Stage 6, or maybe it's finished - Patty's colourful one - it is now back with her
Current status on Craftree: http://www.craftree.com/projects/1698

Doily 4 at Stage 4 or 5 - Taryn's square one (Stage 4 done, but not sent on)
Current status on Craftree: http://www.craftree.com/projects/2715

Doily 5 at Stage 5 - tattrldy/Wanda's pink one
Current status on Craftree: http://www.craftree.com/projects/1698 (look through to find the pictures of the pink doily)

A few false starts but it is completed now. I'm blocking it tonight, then I'll post a photograph. @taryn I hope you are well and in the same location since I will be posting this to you in the next few days.

No @Coretta. I don't have any right now. I'm waiting on one from @taryn.

@PattyD do you have Doily #2? The green one with six pointed center?

@tattrldy are you ready for Grace's. I just talked to Taryn today and she has it ready to post. If you aren't able to work on it, it may be best for her to just send it directly to @GraceT. Also Taryn moved so I'm glad I held off posting for a current address.

Ok. I sent Taryn's Doily back to her today. She has @GraceT Doily and plans to send it to @tattrldy on Friday. So we just need to hear from @PattyD.

@PattyD can you please update us on where you are with what Doily?
@GraceT did you ever get yours back from @Taryn?

@GraceT I tried to message her again, but haven't heard back. That's how I got ahold of her the first time to send her Doily back. She confirmed she had one that needed to be sent to Tattrldy. She was supposed to send it the same weekend I sent hers, but she's had an illness in her family that seems to be quite a bit of work for her.

in reply to masia's post:

I agree. I'd really like to see the one I started come back to me again. And the others completed or at least returned to the originators in the current state.
