WELCOME

Welcome to patchwork promises. The very first International round robin.
This blog is for the participants of the project Patchwork Promises and anyone who wishes to follow.
This creative idea has been created by Nikki Foley.

PATCHWORK PROMISES is an international round robin, in which 7 countries are taking part. Ireland, America, Australia, Netherlands, Kenya, Russia and Japan.  5 top quilters have been chosen from each country. Each person has carefully selected fabric to represent their unique style and country. Everyone taking part will begin with a centre, then the quilts will be passed around, within each country, until each person on the team has added a piece. At the end each country will have 5 quilts, totaling 35 quilts. These when finished will be part of a unique quilt festival 'THE INTERNATIONAL QUILT FESTIVAL OF IRELAND'  in June 2012.  http://www.iqfoi.com/

Follow this blog to get information on the quilters taking part from each team. The progress of the project and catch the latest information as the weeks go by.
