Clearing things up.

I think there is still some confusion out there as to how this all works.

So here is an example:

Lynn fills out her paper and decides what kind of blocks she wants to get. She makes one block and packages it up with her papers and sends it to Pat.

Pat receives the package and reads over the papers learning interesting new things about Lynn and also starts thinking about the block she will make for Lynn using Lynn's preferences and desires as a guideline. She makes the block and packages it up with the papers and Lynn's original block and sends it off to Margaret.

Margaret receives the package and reads over the papers learning interesting new things about Lynn and also starts thinking about the block she will make for Lynn using Lynn's preferences and desires as a guideline. Margaret makes a block and packages it up with the papers, Lynn's original block and Pat's block and sends it off to Carol.

Carol receives the package and reads over the papers learning interesting new things about Lynn and also starts thinking about the block she will make for Lynn using Lynn's preferences and desires as a guideline. Carol makes a block and packages it up with the papers, Lynn's original block, Pat's block and Margaret's block and sends it off to Wendy.

Wendy receives the package, makes a block, adds it to the package and sends to Pam.

The process repeats through Jenn, Michele, Rene, Mary and Crystal and when it comes to me there will be blocks made by everyone but me. I add my block, still using Lynn's preferences as a guide. I package up all the blocks and the papers and mail it to Lynn and she will have at least one block made by each person in the round robin.

It is usually better to wait until you receive a package to start making your block to better match the colors/style that the person is asking for.

Hope this helps clear things up. Please ask questions if you aren't sure about something.
