«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 400 of 583 Newer› Newest»Gosh your Row Along looks fantastic! Wish I had had time to join in, but I didn't (it is on my to do list, but I have to finish a few UFOs first!) My favorite thing was seeing how all the different fabric choices still looked great. Love your little bee on the back too, and the border you did--really finishes it off nicely!
It's Me!The Latecomer! I've so fallen in love with the Row Along Quilt and Little Bumble who lives on the back, but I'm also impressed that in reading the tutorials, they are geared to teach new quilters. I have an adorable co-worker who often asks about quilting and this youthful design is perfect for our giggle girl!
I could not only benefit from adding some "Happy" prints to my stash which is seriously lacking, but also share them...if only as a lesson in color & print selection.
I'm especially in love with the Crazy Quilt Stitch Stripes & I love fabric that you can read! Literally!
This is such a fun quilt. I've loved it all, but I think my favorite were the apples and leaves. You are so creative. Thanks for the chance.
All the rows are cute - I think my very favorite is the spools. And then I just love the way the gingham border looks!
my quilt group friend has been saying to me all along - as i've made each row - "i could never do that. the pieces are so tiny. it looks too hard. i'm not patient enough!"
she took one look at your finished quilt and asked me when i could go shopping with her to help choose fabrics.
she said, "there's no reason i can't make one row per week this summer!"
so . . . yay!
{she'll probably finish hers before i finish mine!}
the whole thing is completely lovely and i am in awe a} of your talent in thinking this quilt up, executing your plan, and {bonus} designing your own fabric; and, b} your willingness to share with all of us!
thanks!
and i WILL finish this quilt!
I found the row along just a couple of months ago but have not been able to start it yet. I have followed you since then and hope to use this pattern soon. I love the designs - they just seem so "homey". Your fabrics enhance the designs. I think my favorite row is the coffee mugs. I also love the outer border with the scallops!
I enjoyed seeing what the block would be for the week, and your tutorials were great. Thanks
My absolute favoutits are the tulips! I have done 24 tulips for several little projects and for mother day:)
Apples are also super...
Thanks a lot for this perfect quilt, I will come bach and back bacause of your sewing ideas. (Patrícia from Hungary)
I found your sew along several weeks ago and have been following since. I am very new to quilting and aspire to be able to make this someday. I love the fabric choices. It is hard to pick my favorite row as I like all of them. I think my favorite part is the label on the back of the quilt. Thank you for the chance at your giveaway.
I came late to the party the first of march but I am having a blast.... I am making the whole thing from my scraps stash and a bolt of white muslim...Working on the tulips now and thinking how I want to quilt it
I have not started my own row along quilt yet, but I have loved seeing yours progress. I came in towards the end when I was googling how to bind a quilt and was directed to one of your tutorials. I learned so many helpful things from your tutorials! I also learned about the Angler 2, which I have now ordered. The three things I like the MOST about your Row Along quilt are: the beautiful bright fabrics, the mittens row and finally, at the other end, the tulips row!
Thank you so much for all of your blog!
I have loved your quilt-a-long, and have added this to my list of projects to start! I hope to pull out my fat quarters this weekend and select my basic colors and see what I need to add. I particularly loved the apples!
My favorite was seeing the completed quilt. LOVE the colors you used. Everything about your quilt is absolutely stunning!
I have been following you along on this quilt row along, but didn't make the quilt. I really wanted to, but didn't have the time. My goal is definitely to still do it sometime. I have it pinned. I love your colors, fabrics, and I love the many different rows of lovely shapes and objects. Such a gorgeous quilt! I love your fabrics and I sent you that picture of my kitchen patchwork curtain.
I love love love it! Your row along was so fun to watch and wait for, I tried to guess before you posted what was coming next and I was always pleasantly surprised!
Thanks for the fun!
Debbie
I have learned so much while making this row along. Thank you for all your great tutorials! Things I have learned: steam distorts cotton, press(not iron),how to measure long pieces on short cutting board, how to fit sashing rows, how important accurate cutting and seams are, how fun it is to be creative. And most important "I am the boss of my own quilt". Thank you soooo much...looking forward to other great projects with you...
Patty in NV
I loved the mittens best, but the most fun was to see how different the rows looked as they were posted on Flickr. I wish I had used a different background fabric, as that seemed to make such a difference. A great learning experience.
This is such a cute quilt. Your tutorials were awesome, so much work with a great result. Thanks for sharing.
I can never just pick one "favorite" about anything, but I've narrowed it down to two. I loved the row of flying geese. And the pieced scalloped border is amazing. Love it!
Thanks for the chance to win some Polka-Dot Stitches. I'm SO crossing my fingers.

What first caught my attention about the row along is the bright, happy colors. I also appreciate the variety of blocks, especially the butterflies. Hanks for the chance to win.
Do I have to pick just one thing? I Love the houses, the flowers, the color combinations, the mittens, the butterflies.... the whole blooming thing is totally adorable! Thank you for sharing your talent and knowledge.
Blessings xxx
I have been following your row along, but could not participate in the fun--yet! I especially love the colors of your fabric.
It's so hard to pick what I like the best ... maybe the tulips and the houses, but then there is so much more to like, or LOVE! I LOVED how you made each tutorial seem "do-able", that I could attempt each step and come out with a beautiful quilt! Thanks so much!
My favorite part of the Row Along--which I watched, as I finished up some WIPs--was the cheeriness of each design. Seeing each row made me smile, which is not a small thing. Thank you for bringing so much sunshine to the world.
I didn't make the quilt, but I've been watching yours and others grow. I love the colors and each of the rows are so unique. I love the apple with bites taken from it. I may do this one sometime.
Lori
The best thing that I can say is that usually I don't like to work from patterns or copy, BUT your designs are so whimsical and thoughtful and inspriing that this is the first time (quilting since the 80's) that I want to rush out and buy all your fabrics. I even hand copied the instructions for this beautiful quilt as I don't have a copier. Lots of work but so worth it! Thankyou for clear instructions, cheerful colors and a great anticipation following along. I hope you go on to add some whimsy to your barn along which I truly love. Thankyou! Butterfly George
My favorite thing about the row along is the fabric! So bright, so cheery, so happy! Even if I make a mistake, when I am sewing with your fabric - no worries! Love it!
I loved absolutely everything about this fun Row Along! The first thing I did every other Wednesday morning was run to your posts to see what adventure we were having next. Your tutorials were clear and precise, and each row was darling. Thanks so much Lori for giving us the opportunity to play along.
I have started picking up fabric right now, joining a 'bit' late! I have read every post along the way since august, and loved the blocks!!! So I am a late starter, but couldn't stop myself, the quilt is just fantastic!!! Thanks Lori for sharing all this in a free quilt along!!!
Thank you so much Lori for sharing with us your fabulous projects! Myrto
myrtovl@gmail.com
the bee label!! my favorite :) you are amazing!
I looovvvveeee the tulips. 3bakergirlsgo@gmail.com
I love the tulip row! It's been so fun to see the rows being made and wondering what the finished quilt will look like. It is wonderful!! Love the colors, the borders and especially the label on the back. Thanks for sharing with us.
When I found your blog and the Row-Along and seeing your new rows posted has to be one of my favorites.
I have been following along from the start and with each row watched this darling quilt come to life. I looked so forward to see what your next row would be. Your instructions are so concise and the pictures make it so easy to follow. I LOVE this quilt, I especially love the tulips :) Thank you for sharing your vision and expertise :) You are so creative!
Loved the apples, especially the one that are a core~! great idea!
m_calton@yahoo.com
Love your blog, fabric, photos, quilts, patterns - well, everything! Would love to win some of your fabric. Debby dlcrabbit@netzero.net
This is the most adorable quilt EVER! How can one pick a favorite thing about this quilt? It is too hard to do, but here are a few that are so cute: I love the outside border pattern, love the houses, the tulips are adorable, the apples. SO CUTE
Lori, as always, you do such great work. You inspire me! I have loved following the row along. Thanks for the giveaway!
I love the mystery of it; you don't know what it would look like until the last minute. Yet, you still can arrange whatever way you want. That is neat!
However, I am still a lot behind. I just finished Row 9 and I am stuck because I really have to clean up my sewing room first before I can go any further.
Thank you for the generous giveaway and have a nice weekend!
Thank you so much for your great instructions! I love the colours you chose. My favourite part would be the spools and houses, and the bee label and the way you added the borders and.....
Thanks for the chance to win the giveaway!!!!
Lori, I so loved this tutorial, each little subject you picked for the row was so fun and your cool fabrics just pushed it over the top for me.
thanks for sharing
I still have three more rows to complete before I can start sewing them together. I think I have been dragging my feet because I don't want it to be over - your row along has been alot of fun for me. I have really enjoyed all of your tutorials and have learned a few new techniques that I will definitely be using in the future - Thanks for the fun!
Hi Lori, I am a fairly new quilter and have not yet started this row a long because I am trying to finish my first log cabin quilt first, however, I must tell you that as a newbee, I have learned so many techniques by following your tutorials...thanks and I look forward to many more gorgeous quilts from you!
Lynda from Canada
I just started it and I loved making the butterflies. I am having so much fun with it. I plan on doing the barn too. I love the colors that you have chosen for all of these.
I love the tulips! My favorite flower. Love you fabrics too. Someday I will make this!
I loved the bee block at the very end. I also loved watching you create as my kids are too little to get to quilt too much right now! Thanks for sharing all the loveliness!
I too have been following along since day 1. I really liked what you were doing but thought I really didnt want to do a row quilt...boy was I wrong. We are away from home right nw but I can hardly wait to get home and start it...I love the leaves, I love the tulips, I love the apples...goodness I love it all...but the zinger is the scallopped looking gingham border with scappy binding! A real winner! Thanks for such a fun pattern!
I have been following along since the beginning, but since I also started a job in the beginning I did not join. I want to make one desperately.
You know that I love you to a point of desperation and want nothing more in my life to have some polka dot stitches in my house. Kassidy please choose my name.
Lori--this has been a wonderful journey. In ever would have tackled a row quilt. Thanks for sharing your love of quilting.
Love the red dress in the photo shoot.
This quilt is so amazing!
I decided to join the row along in row 10! I caught up in just a few days of working hard and ignoring housework. I really enjoyed your awesome tutorials.... How you did all of the math for each block is beyond understanding for me! You are amazing! And I think it was very generous of you to post these tutorials for free. Seriously I am very thankful!It was such great practice for me working with all of those itty bitty pieces and eventually becoming super accurate with my points! Thanks Lori! You rock!
I have truly enjoyed the RowAlong. My favorite thing? Hmmm, tough! But I know I will do more flying geese for doll quilts. Also the stars but my favorite was your technique for making the little square row. Thank you!
I loved following along. I didn't jump into making one as I already had a few too many projects going. I have decided, however, that this will be my summer sewing project and that I am going to wait for your new Bake Shop fabric line for my quilt plus bits and pieces of other of your fabrics I have on my shelves. Three fat quarters of Polka Dot Stitches would certainly had to my fun.
Thank you for sharing this project. You are so generous with your time and multi-talents!
I have followed your row a long quilt from the very beginng and had no idea what to expect from it, but wow what a finish. Now I just need to find the time to make one for myself.
I looked forward to each new row and the process you used to create each. I was hooked when I saw the apple row. I'm thinking about trying it as a smaller baby quilt with the flowers and butterflies. My favorite thing about the quilt.... The variety in the rows and your fabric choices. Absolutely a fun fun quilt.
I did it I finished your row along and loved it. This was my first time to follow a quilt on line. I couldn't wait to finish each row. I loved the anticipation of what each rw would look like. You gave the best instructions that even a beginner like me could follow. Thanks so much.
Michelle Stewart
I love your enthusiasm Lori! AND of course your photos. Sometimes it is hard to follow written instructions, but not yours! the photos demonstrating what you are referring to are so very helpful. thank you for the row along! margo in victoria bc canada
I love your work, superb! :)
Can i join the giveaway? ;)
I would love to win that pack.
Best wishes
Dânia
i started the row-a-long but only finished two rows. i have loved seeing all your progress, and your quilt is just beautiful. i love all the designs and the colors that you picked. i do plan to continue working on my quilt, and hopefully will get it completed during the summer.
I love apples and bumblebee label. They are so cute. Maybe one day...
MNakata45(at)aol(dot)com
To me it's all about the BIG reveal! The ahhhhh, oooooh, wowwww, you hear and say when you see the finished project for the first time :)
My favorite row was the tulips, the way they zig zag up and down! So adorable!
I love the bee label for the back...sooooo cute!!
Due to family circumstances I've not been able to start this yet, but have it all saved for when things improve.
I loved the brights colours right from the start, but then as the lessons progressed I also loved you clear instructions and excellent photographs of the steps - plus all the tutorials along the way.
Thank you so much.
I have so enjoyed seeing everyones progress. I followed the flicker group and i would stop in and see what was going on every few days. Wonderful work by everyone. lisaursino@msn.com
I found the row along quilt 2 weeks ago. I've got the first 7 rows done and I LOVE THEM!! Your tutorials are awesome. I teach beginners at the quilt shop I work at here in Alberta, and I recommended your blog because your tutorials are so great! I can't wait to finish mine row along. Thanks so much!
I love how I can use these separately as borders- great for my borders bee!

I am a late joiner having just discovered the row along about a month ago, but I can't wait to make one. I love the colors, the apples, the feeling of whimsy and joy about the quilt! Thank you!
Your row-along has been so much fun to follow along. I love how you break down each step into easy-to-understand pieces and your photographs are the bomb!
I haven't started your row along yet but I'm going to. This quilt is just to cute to miss. I especially love the tulip row.
I absolutely love all of your tutorials! It is hard for me to pick a favorite row, they are all so cute! I have learned a lot during this row along, and you give me confidence in my piecing abilities with your easy to follow and explicit instructions. I can't wait to finish my quilt, yours looks amazing!!!
Camilai0830@yahoo.com
Love the row along. I have only just found it. And my daughter has seen it too, so guess I'll be making it ;-)
fldankosnel@yahoo.co.uk
I wasn't able to row along, but I plan on rowing by myself this summer (hopefully :) I am very excited for the mittens and mugs, but I do think the flower row is my favorite. I also love the scrappy border--you don't really see a lot of things like that.
I have always loved tulips since I was very little. So when I saw the tulip row I was so excited. I wanted to do a whole quilt with just tulips! Thank you so much for the patterns for this gorgeous quilt and the chance to win some of your fabulous fabric!
I have been sewing vicariously! My favorite row has to be the tulips, since that is my FAVE flower :)
Seriously, I had wanted to join in this row along, but you know what they say about good intentions!
I am definitely going to join in on the quilty barn along after the weekend though!
Love the scrappiness of it...I a such a symmetrical planner that this will be an interesting challenge for me. wish me luck!
I have been following along, but I haven't started mine yet. I think my favorite row is the cups! I also enjoyed seeing all of the different fabrics that were used by everyone. Thanks for sharing your talents with all of us. I hope to make your quilt this summer.
I love the mittens block! I would love to make this quilt, just need to get better at my sewing skills. Love it <3
My favorite part is how all of it came together! At first I was a skeptic, but all the rows go along quite nicely.
My favorite things about the row along are the butterfly & tulip rows, which are so cute, and the flickr group, because I love seeing everyone's different take on the row along.
Thank you so much for all the time & effort you have put into this row along. I appreciate it!
It looks gorgeous all finished. My favourite row is the apple row. There are so many lovely motifs to try at different times, and to put in other projects too. Thanks for sharing your inspiration , and for the giveaway too.
ks(dot)eyles(at)yahoo(dot)co(dot)uk
Thank you so much for the wonderful row along. I didn't think I could do it,,, but I did. I learned alot and love your style. I am excited about the barn along. Your fabrics are so cute and patterns are great.
Thanks again.
This quilt was jam-packed with cute details, but the part I liked best was the last...the quilt label block for the back. What a great way to document and finish off such an epic quilt.
You are so easy to follow, your instructions and pictures are awesome!
The border, the lable, the colors....too many elements of this quilt that I love...so glad you're finished and now we can all enjoy the fruits of your labor!
I adore the quilt! Words can't describe how much I love the tulip row - it's my favorite flower and this is the best I've seen them look in a quilt yet!
I loved the tulip block but they are all beautiful. I also love how much detail you put in the instructions, you make it so much easier for us. Thanks for the chance to win some beautiful fabric.
Totally loved making the butterflies and apples the best. All good fun, easy to follow tutorials all along the way. What a blast this was! Pick me! LOL!
I loved waiting to see what the next row would be. I learned new techniques. I still have 3 rows to go but am excited to finish it. Your quilt is just delightful! thank you for sharing this pattern and tutorials.
Needless to say, I haven't started the row along yet, too many other things going. However, I could hardly wait to see your next row. And I really enjoyed looking at the flicker group and seeing all the different color options used.
my favorite things? the adorable fabric and pattern, and the i-can't-wait-to-see-the-next-block expectancy, like christmas for adults!!! thanks for the giveaway! :)
I have been following your beautiful row along from the beginning. My favorite rows are the apples and tulips. As a new quilter I don't have enough courage or fabric to attempt such a big project yet. I really hope to be able to start this quilt soon. Thank you for all the wonderful tutorials....they give a beginner the confidence needed to create beautiful quilts.
anglanouette(at)gmail(dot)com
I have had a great time working on this quilt. Can't wait to get it done. I love it!
I love every inch of your quilt, it is AWESOME! I don't think I can pick a favorite part of the row along. You did an excellent job with instructions and pictures, leaving no questions unanswered. The little apples and flowers might be my favorite rows. But then I really like the mittens, but the little houses are so sweet, oh boy. Then your choice of colors and fabrics makes it look so homey and cozy.
I love everything about this quilt from the pattern to the colors. I have started late making it but look forward to the finish. Thanks for a great quilt along and pattern.
I have been reading all of the row-along posts, and cannot wait to get started! I love the idea that I can do a row at a time, and really enjoy the process...and the finished quilt is stunning!
I love the apple row the best! I like how you break down each block. I love the barn along, it's like an old fashioned amish barn raising...but in a quilt.
Your quilt turned out so beautiful! My favorite part is definitely the tulip row! I'm hoping to start mine after I get a few other projects finished up!
I joined the peanut gallery late--I love your tutorials and the barn block w/ a block is my favorite!
And I love giveaways! (Who doesn't?)
The mittens are my favorite blocks. They're just sooo cute. I plan to eventually start my own quilt, but first I want to do the barn along.
My favorite part about the rows is that blocks that seems unacheivable, like baskets, are easy and fit in with the rest of the quilt. It's also a nice change from a block of the month. Thank you for your time in this.
my favorite part? everything! the colors, the tulips, ....
My favorite rows are the tulips and the mugs. I love that fabric you are giving away. I am going to have to find some if I don't win.
This quilt caught my eye from the beginning. So cute! I only have 4 rows completed, BUT I have the rest all cut and in little baggies ready for spare moments of sewing. THANKS for sharing your talents.
Once I get all the fabrics that I need to make this quilt, I am certainly making it for my mother! I know she'd love this quilt and it's variety of the blocks.
Thanks so much!! If I get one of your bundles, it's certainly going towards this quilt!
THANKS!!! Your quilt looks absolutely amazing!
My favorite part was the time I got to spend sewing each row. The past 6-8 months have brougt some serious challenges in my life and sewing each block and row was definitely "Calgon...take me away" time. It's been a wonderful distraction. Now I have an adorable quilt that was made from leftover fabric of another quilt that I made last summer and lots of pieces from my stash bins too....love it when I can do that!! Thank you very much!
I'm not really into Barns but I will be making the cute quilt squares that are in each barn. I'll make a few of each and then have enough for another quilt....mostly made of scraps from my bins....YAY!!!!!
Thank you again! Happy sewing everyone!
~Lucy
Hi Lori,
This has been such an exciting sewing time following your Row Along!
My favorite row to make was the houses - love choosing the windows and chimneys and cuteness!!!
I adore the "Spring" Tulips jumping up and down in a row!
The apples and apple core's was a YAY!
I've learnt so much from your techniques and photos to follow!
The Bee block on the back is the icing on the cake!!!
Thank you so much for all the fun and teaching time you've given...you are the Queen Bee!
I will be posting pictures with a little help...ASAP!
I have following your project. I think it is a fabulous design. I thought about starting one,but I just couldn't find fabrics as pretty as yours. This giveaway would be just the thing to get started.
I loved your row a long and while I didn't participate in this one I am doing the Barn A Long. You have such great tutorials that it makes everything so easy peasy and a joy.
I love the border and the scrappy binding. My favorite row is the thread spools!
Lori,
Thanks so much for the amazing Row Along! My Mom and I both enjoyed following along. I loved your detailed tutorials and beautiful pictures every week.
The tulip, apple and mug rows are my favorites and I love the scalloped border and bumble bee label to finish it off!!! Thanks again and thanks for the fun giveaway.
I have sat on the edge of my seat waiting to see what you came up with for the next row. I love all the blocks, but especially like your outside border. I can wait to try the boarder in my next quilt, it really frames the quilt nicely. It was so fun being part of this blog.
Hi Lori,
I'm finishing up my last row--the tulips and then need to put my rows together and do my borders. I have SO ENJOYED this row a-long. I've never done a mystery quilt and never done a "row quilt" so this was a first for me in both of those areas. I love the bright happy colors that you chose to do this in (I did too.) My mother came down yesterday and saw it on the floor all laid out and just had a fit! She said that it was her all-time favorite quilt! (She is not a quilt-maker.) Every 2 weeks, I waited eagerly to see what our rows would be this time and would start right away so I wouldn't get behind. Obviously, I am a bit behind now--we had a death in the family and were out of town for the funeral so I'm just getting back to normal. Thank you so much for such a fun quilt along!! I love your fabrics and your patterns and you are so generous to share them with us!
My favorite rows are the tulips across the top and the spools of thread. Very cute.
I love doing a row rather than blocks for a change. It made me try new patterns and the timing every 2 weeks gave me plenty of time to keep up when things got busy. I am behind now, but hope to finish next week over the long Easter weekend. Thanks for hosting such a fun event.
I would say that I am soo sad that this is over....but I'm not done yet :) I have loved every little step though and I really look forward to getting it done. Seeing yours is such an inspiration. I love love love your style and am looking forward to starting my barns very soon as well.
Thanks sooo much for all the fun, you are the greatest !!!!!
I absolutely love your fabric choices!! I´m starting "Quilty Barn Along ".Thank you Lori
My favorite thing about the row along is learning all of the techniques to make the different images/shapes. Really neat! The finished product is gorgeous!
My favorite thing about the row along is learning the different techniques to make the shapes/images. Really neat! The finished product is gorgeous!
My favorite thing is that every row is different!
Honestly this rowalong was so delightful. I haven't started yet, but I've been collecting all of the patterns for my mother, who has. With each new pattern I would shout to her - Oh my goodness! Wait until you see this!! Each block was such a delight. (I think the apples might be my favorite...). Awesome design. Thank you SO much! If I can ever decide which fabric to use, I'll be making one too!
- sunshdws at yahoo dot com
The apples are still my favorite and the reason I started to Row Along. The houses are precious and I love the tulips, but haven't made them just yet. I love the scrappy border!!!
Thanks so much for putting this together!!
I loved everything about this row along but if I had to single out one thing, I love how you made each row out of fun objects! I fell off after the first few rows but I'm determined to finish this fun quilt sometime this year. Thanks for a fun row along!
If I could pull colors together and make them work magic like you do, I would have mine done by now. So, perhaps coordinating bundles of fabric would help me along?? Oh, Kassidy! I will be your newest, bestest friend if you pull my name. Pleease???
I have LOVED following the progress of your Row Quilt. I have enjoyed seeing your fabric choices, and the final product is just precious. Carol in Texas
I absolutely love this quilt. I'm still working on it and anxious to get finished just because it's so special. I love all the blocks! It's hard to pick a favorite so won't. Your fabric choice is great and I'm making in 30's prints. It's perfect! Thanks for the QAL and thanks for the giveaway. Looking forward to starting another!!
I am just finishing the updating of my kitchen so I couldn't "row along" when you started. I love your finished quilt and hope to make a smaller version to hang in my kitchen. It will add a lot of color and fun.
I love that pattern , the fabric very nice job. I love your blog please keep posting...
My favorite thing about this row along were the tutorials for each row. I also enjoyed seeing the rows made by the ladies at Fat Quarter Shop with different fabrics/colors.
I just started this blog-mania a month ago! But everyday I look for the bonnet to start my day. Your creations are fabulous! And I plan to make this quilt when I get the necessary fabrics! I've purchased the circle rulers and can't wait to show you what I'm working on.
HELLO! Beside the sewing, it is the following of you and the others and seeing their progress! Thanks for sharing a beautiful Giveaway!
msstitcher1948@yahoo.com
I have been working on the row along sine November. I really have enjoyed the anticipation of seeing what will happen in two weeks for each row. I don't know what to do next. I will finish this weekend with the borders. Thankyou for all your work. lauren wood
I think the thing I love the most is that its such a fun pattern that no matter what fabrics people choose it looks adorable!
It's been such a delight to see your quilt come together. Although I have not taken part because of time constraints (daughter getting married and I'm working on a "wedding"quilt) I have bookmarked each installment and hope to start when the wedding is over in May!!
I haven't made any rows yet, but am in love with so many of them. The tulips are especially sweet, but I'm also crazy over the little mugs. And the mittens. And the apples. Oh, it's just adorable all over!
What fun this has been!
I loved the row of mugs best!!
It is such a fun, colorful, beautiful quilt!! I love the tulips! Thanks for being so generous with your time & talents!
I came across your "Row along" quite late in the show, but by all means do I want to make one! The rows are absolutely darling; especially the apples, tulips and mittens ... and, and!! Can't wait to start pulling together fabrics for this one. Thanks for the tutorials and gorgeous photos. Keep up the good work!
Beautiful finished quilt, love the gingham border.
You're tutorials are so helpful. Thank you for sharing.
I love the idea of a row along and wish to participate in the future. Your quilt is awesome and amazing!!
I couldn't join to the sew along because I've been mom last days of december, but Ive been following all your poosts about it.
I would love to win one of those beautiful bundles to make the quilt :)
Thank you so much for this chance to win. Fingers crossed
First I am a scrapaholic. So I love quilt patterns like this, I love the mystery, the cliff hanging thrill waiting to see whats next. The pattern is easy to follow. I am working on one currently trying to use all scrap including the background.
I deal with depression and this is the one thing I can look forward to with a lot of excitement, within no time I perk up and the fabric starts flying!
Your quilt is so fabulous and I am just starting to make my rows! Thanks for the darling idea for the quilt label on the back. Very inspiring!
I love the surprise element of wondering what's next. I'm always amazed at your blocks and your generosity in sharing your know how with us. I learn so much from you and can't wait to try some of these cute blocks.
Hi Lori! I found your blog only a few weeks ago. So I haven't joined in. But I LOVE this row along. And an FQ bundle would be great to start!
I think my favorite thing about your row along is all the fun blocks you made with simple piecing! And the rows are just so darn cute. I love all your work, and I was so happy to do this quilt! My favorite tip/help I got from you (long ago) was the little blocks flannel boards. Boy do I love the ones I made for me. Those have to be my all time favorite tip/help I've picked up online from anywhere. How did I ever live without them!
My favorite thing about the Row Along was that the post for each new row was like opening a present. Each one was prettier than the last. My two favorite rows are the apples and the houses.
I loved working on the cups. I thought it is one of the cutest rows. It's been fun working on this quilt.
I am a basket nut, so my favorite pattern is the little basket-it's so versatile! I can embellish each little basket, or leave it alone, and it's as sweet as your fabric line!

I love the flying geese row & the apples. Most of all, I love your clear instructions. Thanks for your efforts in putting this together! wonderlandbyalyce at gmail dot com
I'm going to miss the row along! I have loved it! I think my favorite is the bee label but it was a hard choice. So cute!

I loved finding out what creative and fun design the rows were... Loved the apples they really made me smile!
I am absolutely loving this row along!!! I am still working on it but my favorite row to make so far has to be the mittens! I feel like I can make a whole quilt with them! Thank you so much for making this row along possible, it has been awesome.
Your quilt is just adorable! I love the colours.
I've just come across your blog today, and will put this quilt on my love-to-do list.

I love the quilt. It looks so fresh and springy. The last border really was a cute idea,
Clear tutorials (which must have taken forever to prepare). I just love the quilt!!
Love your fabric/color choices! It looks fabulous as a full quilt but I'm also looking forward to making other items with your patterns - a table runner and a bag. Thank you so much for your great photos and tutorials.
Thank you for leaving the pattern on the blog--I'm waaaaay behind! My favorite thing about the sew along was waiting to see what the next cute row would be. The finished quilt is spectacular!! Thanks for the fun sew along.
I love love loved the little bee block and the houses.
I loved learning new techniques and seeing how you go about picking fabrics for your scrappy quilts. Your posts made me so happy as did the bright colors you used. Lifted my spirits during a long, cold, winter. Thank you!!
I love everything about this quilt along - now I just need to finish! Thanks for the tips every week!
I think the best parts of the row along were that you made it look so easy. Directions and pictures really help. What looked like it would be difficult, wasn't. I also liked that you did it slowly, so you could catch up and not hurry.
I just love the way to completed the rows and the fabrics are my favorite!
I have followed this every week. Have decided I really want to do it but there are so many great Riley Blake Fabrics I can't decide which ones I want to try. Unfortunately there are no quilting stores that carry these fabrics nearby to check them out in person. I'm hoping to win some fat quarters here to get started. Thanks so much for sharing!
I followed been almost from the beginning, and though she did not take part in sewing, learned a lot, especially with
Scrappy Backing & Binding Tutorial -
Thank you and best regards from Poland
I didn't join the row along, but it is cute I am going to add it to my "to list" love your fabric and designs! Thanks for the give away.
My favorite part of the Row-A-Long, was waiting to see what the next part was going to be and what fabrics you were going to use! I would wait anxiously for an email with a link to your blog with the update! I absolutely LOVE the bee you made for the back of the quilt! Such a wonderful idea!!

Lori, I absolutely love this quilt! It is perfect to hang in my new studio (we just moved)! I think my absolute favorite thing about the quilt is learning new tricks. I've been a quilter for 20 years and thought I knew most of the tricks...but you showed me something new! Thanks so much! And I'm now doing the barns!
I loved each and every row, but just finished the last one, the row of tulips, which is my favorite.Thanks, Lori, for this fun quilt along. Looking forward to making some barns soon.
I haven't yet joined in the row along, but I have read every post about it, and admired every block. I sure want to make it and with the fat quarter bundle, I could get started right away ! It was so fun to see it grow!! Thanks for the giveaway!
I love your tutorials, they are so descriptive and beautifully photographed for ease in understanding. I am just now putting together my fabrics for my row along quilt.
I am looking forward to the barn along too!
I have really enjoyed the row-a-long! My favorite part is all the different designs you chose for the rows. Beautiful quilt! Thanks for the giveaway!

My favorite part is the coffee cups and the mitterns...what a lovely quilt project to be in...Thanks so much from Australia.
I love the mini rows. Today I sewed all my rows together, now on to the border. Yippee!
I had every intention of joining in at the beginning but I have saved every single row and will start on it probably next week. My two favorite rows are the house row and the flowers row and oh heck just every single row. You are an amazing designed and ....
This is super cute! I've been following along, but haven't been able to start mine yet. I so love each row and all your techniques. This has taught me a lot of tricks that I am very grateful for. Thank you!
My favorite part was seeing everyone's color choices in the Flickr group, and all the variety of the same quilt. I'm almost done with all my rows - I appreciated that there were two weeks between each row being posted! Thanks for the hard work you put in on this. I'm still a ways from finishing this quilt, but I'm already trying to decide what I'll do with the finished product!

What an awesome photo shoot of an awesome quilt! You have put a lot of work into presenting this Row Along--three cheers for Lori!! The best for me has been the simplicity of the blocks and the ability to see other versions via flicker.
I love the apples and that you thought to have some that are half eaten.
I love the cheerful, happy feeling this quilt gives me. I am so inspired to make one during my summer break. Would love to use your new fabric line in my quilt. Thanks for your cute projects!

I love the houses and the butterflies. I hope to make this quilt one day. I love the barns too! Too many ideas for to many quilts and not enough time to do them!
I have the rows together. All of it has been so fun that I can't pick a favorite! Maybe picking the fabrics? And it's fun to see what other fabrics people have used. I used mostly Denyse Schmidt prints but now want to do one in 30's reproductions.
Above everything else, you made me fall in love with your style, colours, and your fabric!
I am working on my new design, Daisy Days, and all the pieceing will be done with Sew Cherry.
Lori - thank you.
You have the zeal and generosity that makes people want to come back to your blog day after day.
Love ya!!

Can't think of one thing I did not like about this wonderful row along! The top ones...
1. Your clear and concise tutorials for each and every row.
2. The fact that each row has taken me out of my comfort zone,while at the same time,taught me so much!
3. All the wonderful little glimpses into your personal life that you have shared with us throughout the row along. Thanks for letting us get to know you a bit better through those snippets :0)
Yes I am also raisin a few barns of my own!
I love all the elements in your quilt. My favorite block is the tulip.
Congratulations on the finish of your Row-a-long quilt. I especially enjoyed your tutorials and the instructions were superb. All the many ideas for rows are such fun; really liked the tulips! Thanks for your generous giveaway.
Happy Sewing!

I have so enjoyed your row along. I loved the way you did the borders and the binding also! Thanks so much.
I haven't started yet, but it is so great I want to get it started. My favorite row would be the tulips. But the label bee is so cute too.
I love this, but haven't started yet. Love the little spools best I think :)
It made a beautiful quilt
I love the tulips! Makes me wanting spring, :)
I have loved the different rows. Was fun to check my email and see what the next row would be. I have real enjoyed this row along!
In truth, I've only done one row, but have plans for the rest! My favorite thing about this quilt is being able to use so many different fabrics in small amounts - a real stash buster! My favorite row is the apples - they are so fun looking and not a feature that one sees often. Thanks so much for the fun and inspiration! And thanks for the generous giveaway too!
I loved the apples row, both the eaten and the uneaten. I like your gingham border. all the rows were fun.
I loved all the Rows. Your fabric choices just made each row have such personality. I hope to make this on my Quilt retreat in June. I'd love to use your fabrics!
I love love the cute bee label. My favorite row is the apples and apple cores. Lovely quilt. Thanks for doing this. I really learned a lot.

I've done row 1, but haven't gotten to the rest of the rows yet. I have been saving all of your very detailed tutorials, though. I have a couple of quilts I need to get done first. lol (I know, who doesn't? lol) Love your, it's just so cute! Congratulations on finishing!
I love the tulip row and the cup row...oh shoot, I love them all! I am doing the barns...made two of them last weekend at our Quilt Retreat. A lot of positive feedback from all the gals. One of my next projects is the row along...has been on my bucket list. Thank you for all of your encouragement and great tutorials.
