Row by Row Experience:
This year we are participating in the Row by Row Experience! We are so excited!!! Not sure what that is? We'll tell you!
How about this… it's like a shop hop, but it's not... no fees, no cards
to stamp, and all summer to play! Simply visit any of the participating
shops and receive a free pattern for a row in a quilt. Combine your rows
in any way to create a unique quilt that represents the fun you had
traveling throughout the summer. Travel with friends, discover new quilt
shops and have fun collecting rows!
Please see the Row by Row website for a complete list of rules.
This year our row was designed by Swan Sheridan of Swan Amity Studios.
We were so lucky to have her trunk show with us last summer- but we are
even luckier she agreed to design our gorgeous row! Please go to her
website
