I love your row by row quilt. I am alos a MN girl, from SW MN. I am a long arm quilter and actaully quilted teh Junior Row by Row quilt for the Gathering Friends Quilt Shop in Bird Island. Tomorrow I am going on a 2 day Bus Trip to Missouri Star Quilt company and stopping at Quilt Shops on the way the and on the way home. Hoping to buy a few Row by rows from the shops out of state (Iowa, Nebraska, and Missouri). Thought that would be fun. And I'm going to my son's in Colorado Springs in Sept. so can get one from Colorado and going to go to my Daughters in South Dakota in August so can get one from South Dakota. Then I could add a couple from MN and I could have a fun quilt from several different states.

It will look great once you put on a border and quilt it. Quilting totally changes the look of a quilt. I am using by birthday candies for this same quilt. I have already started making blocks from my candies from previous swaps.

Have fun on your road trip and collecting rows and plates adorning.

I am in the Twin Cities area, but most of my rows are from Northern MN shops and the one from WI, which is close to where my Mother in Law lives.
