Row by Row 2016

How many of you participated in the 2015 Row by Row experience last summer? Last year was the first year for this fun activity, and the theme was water.  This year, the theme is Home Sweet Home.

I was again honored to design our local quilt shop- Oh Sew Persnickety's row this year!


I really love the Home Sweet Home theme this year!!  So many possibilities!!


I also decided to make our row vertical instead of horizontal.  That way, it can be made just as it is and used as a wall or door hanging.


I am a garden lover, and especially love to watch the birds outside through my kitchen window... so naturally bird houses came to mind!!  



Also, like last year, I wanted to include the cute little bird that Oh Sew Persnickety has in their shop logo!



I named the design "Home Tweet Home"!


I hope everyone likes it and it brings in lots of visitors and business to our beloved little quilt shop!!


Yogi is enjoying this warm summer weather from the coolness of the front porch on the glider!!  


How are you all keeping cool this summer??

  1. Happy Sunday. Oh my your wall hanging is adorable. I still do not have much confidence in my fmq, but yours looks so good. One day.
    I hope all of you, and Yogi are doing just fine and staying cool.
    I wear shorts, cute girly flimsy tops, and run safely from one airconditioned place to the next.
    Happy Day before Summer

  3. I did participate last year and have been looking forward to this year. Your row is one of the cutest ones I've seen online so far. I'm not very excited about some of the rows of shops in my local area yet. Hopefully they will be cuter in person than they looked online.

  5. I think the row by row thing started 3-4 years ago based on all that I saw last year. Several were swapping last year from the year before. I got sucked in last year and determined that would NOT happen this year (I still have bazillions of rows still tucked into their pkgs! UGH). Your row is ADORABLE (but I am NOT getting sucked in..LOL). Yogi is adorable as always.

  12. Are you making a pattern for this darling wall hanging? I would love one or a kit. Something to think about. I am sure Jennifer Bosworth at Shabby Fabrics.com would help you kit this is a laser cut pre glued format.

  15. Oh Polly, that is so adorable! I would love to have a copy of that pattern for a wall hanging! I love the little birdies and the houses!

    I haven't lived in VA in many a year, but I do remember the hot and muggy summers! Of course, since I am now in FL, I get it year round. Keep Yogi cool!
