Christmas-Winter DYB 2010

This is a DYB (Do Your Own Block) Round Robin, where each participant pieces 6 small (6” square) blocks. Each of the other participants selects one block and does it completely, and when the blocks return home to their owner, 5 of 6 are complete (leaving the last one for the owner to do).  The theme here was Christmas or Winter, and the participants were:  Juli, Ritva, Peggy Sue, Laura and Diane.
