    Hi DJ,
    Almost had another one to show tonight but I got tired just before finishing. I'm doing the Graceland row from Sew Memphis, and this thing is all cut and pieced... hundreds of pieces! So scary because you don't know if they intend a full quarter inch seam to be used, or the scant. I'm doing something in between but you fly by the seat of your pants, not knowing any finished dimensions of the different sections of the row.

    The Graceland in bright colors is cool. I'm going to see if I can embroider "Graceland" over the door. Will show it soon.

    Sewbizgirl,
    I use true quarter inch on squares. I'd probably go nuts measuring seams for curves, lol! Need to buy a template for those. Post when you can, love seeing your progress!
    hugs,
    dj

    I hear you Sewbizgirl. Row-by-Row mode it is for me too. I have 3 rows 100% done, 3 rows that are almost done; ran out of applique thread on one and was too late to run into town to go to Joann's for more, doing hand embroidery on another, and the last one I just need to do the applique as I did the piecing part of the row when I ran out of applique thread on the other one yesterday. I am working on the embroidery one over lunch at work; however, I am hoping to have the other two done tonight. Then I have another row that is ready to be cut so maybe, just maybe I can get that cut tonight so I can have it all ready to applique tomorrow night.

    I was so bummed that I ran out of thread in the middle of my applique last night I was so on a roll with that one and wanted to have 4 rows 100% done.

    I have 4 rows 100% done and quilted. I am doing them "quilt-as-you-go" style. Then I have 3 more rows partially done. The tops are done and I am quilting. I LOVE THIS! I'm hoping some license plates and patterns show up in my mailbox today (trades)! Love love love quilting these rows individually.

    Anoka, what rows are you doing? I am doing these (so far):

    Bernina shop in Jackson MS
    Cotton Blossom Shop in Madison MS
    Stitchin' Post in Hattiesburg MS
    Heavenly Quilting in Kingsport TN
    Bumbletees in Germantown, TN
    Sew Memphis in Memphis TN
    Quilter's Crossing in Tomball TX

    Sorry to hijack the thread, just excited to be doing row by row!
