Row Along - Winter Wonderland!!


So I have never done a  row-along but have always wanted to.  So when I was asked to design a row for one I was super excited.  I love designing and it would give me the opportunity to finally participate in a Row-Along,  Double Bonus!!  This fun event is being  hosted by Patchwork Posse,  The theme is “Winter Wonderland,” and every 2nd and 4th Monday of each month there will a tutorial posted at Patchwork Posse for a new row.  The rows will be 48" wide and up to 10" tall.  So you will have a pretty nice size winter throw when you are done!!


Here is a list of the designers and when you can expect the new rows :)  I am so excited to be part of this amazing group of quilters!!



January 28: Patchwork Possie
February 25: Robin Quilts, etc.
March 11: Quilter Chic
April 8: Quiet Play
April 22: The Tulip Patch
May 27: Twiddletails
June 10: Happy Quilting - That's Me :)
June 24: 42 Quilts
July 8: CraftyTammie
July 15: Patchwork Possie - Finishing it up and Prizes!!!

I have decided that I will be using my Blitzen Fat Eighth bundle to Row-Along.  I love this line and think it will make a wonderful Winter Wonderland quilt :)  So grab some Winter inspired fabric, and  get ready to  row along!!

  1. I hope this comes out the right way because I am honestly laughing sitting here. I ordered a layer cake of Blitzen to make my sister-in-law and brother-in-law a thank you quilt for always hosting family gatherings. When it came in, my husband and I looked at each other is obvious disappointment. We both just didn't like it at all. I had planned to use it in a pattern that kept most of the layer cake pieces in large pieces. I found another pattern, cut it up smaller, and sewed it together. The result is now acceptable! And this is one of the reasons quilting is so fun -- what one person likes isn't necessarily what another person likes but we can all appreciate the effort and creativity. I can't wait to see what you come up with and maybe it'll even make me want to buy some more Blitzen!!! Thanks for blogging. It makes my lunch hours go fast!
