I've been looking at the themes folks have picked and was astounded at how many birdhouse themed rows there are. Pelicans are common around the Gulf Coast.... Magnolia blossoms in the deep south. Looking at the State's photo galleries is a mini art exhibit in itself :-). Longhorns and bluebonnets in Texas (anyone surprised by that one?) So many applique rows, too.... I prefer piecing. I have two kits so far... This weekend will have me tooling around picking up more patterns.

Wow....the last couple of days have been hectic but fun. My DH was a real trooper during all of this. We visited 16 shops in two days and drove almost 500 miles. Here's a photo of my "stash enhancement" and some of the rows I collected. Now for some sewing.....LOL.

I love several row by rows in the Houston area and I live 6 hours away and drive that far. Can you purchase the kits and have them mailed to you?

I finally got a chance to do some sewing on my Row by Row quilt. Almost have 3 rows done....just need to add the embellishments and writing in some areas to finish them up. The next rows in line are pieced instead of applique so they may go a little faster. I can't believe that so many quilts have been completed already. One of them was completed and taken to a shop to collect the prize the day after RBR started! I don't anticipate "winning" anything since there are only 4 shops within 100 miles of me but I'm having fun doing these rows. Here's a photo of my not-quite-finished rows so far. Anyone else have photos of their rows to share?

here's mine so far. I've got one I've not started yet, and plan on picking up three more Friday.
Here is my progress so far. I have not done anything that I can't do with my straight stitch machine yet. I'll have to thread up my embroidery machine to finish some of these. http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...psvcsuoblt.jpg http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...pszdkpqlgu.jpg http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...psmikawtld.jpg http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...psnvkgqhp1.jpg http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...ps9qlkw2xa.jpg http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...pskj5wtfyg.jpg http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...psvxdrhtmr.jpg http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...pszhe0mbfh.jpg |
Wow, love the rows. I'm just on my 2nd row!

Got my travel plans set. Used Quiltinghub.com for the shops between Paducah and Florida and cross referenced with the row by row shop participation. It made a difference as to which shops I'll take time to visit. I'll miss a few because I'm traveling on a Monday.
