Cross Stitch Round Robin
I imagine most people reading this would know what a round robin is. But just in case you don't, a brief explanation is that each person in a group of people (between four and six is a good number) start with a piece of cross stitching fabric, and stitch a motif or design on it, leaving enough room for more designs to be added by other people. The participants are provided with a list of people to send to, and each one sends her original piece to the next person on her list. After a given time, the process is repeated, so that eventually everyone will receive their original fabric back, with a design added from each person in the group.
There is usually a theme, so that all the participants have an idea what patterns to look for when decided what to stitch on each person's RR. I have been in some RRs where people actually decide what they want on their RR, and send patterns for their whole piece, and the others have to use the pattern provided. I personally like the surprise factor when individuals choose a design to stitch.
