Row By Row 2018

Yesterday was the kick off for another season of Row by Row. This event runs until September 4, visit participating stores to collect patterns and kits to make your quilt. The first person to bring their finished quilt to our store will receive 25 fat quarters and if you include our Row you will receive a bonus gift. A finished quilt must include at least 8 different rows, be quilted, bound and labeled. September 5-October 31 is a special time set aside for stitching and stores are unable to sell kits or give out patterns for their Row. We can resume this on November 1.

The theme this year is Sew Musical. Every participating shop has designed a row to go with this theme. The organizers of Row by Row have allowed for 4 different sizes of rows, Long Tall Sally, Foxy Boxy, RxR Classic, and Short and Sassy. These differing sizes allow for you to be more creative in the layout and size of your quilt. We decided to stick with the classic size this year and Esther designed our fun Row that features chicks, notes and the saying Chick-a -doodle-doo. You can come in store to receive 1 free pattern or grab a kit for $12.50.

To see the other Rows from Alberta check out the Alberta Row By Row page on Facebook, they have published a bio on each Shop that is joining in on the fun and a picture of their Row. S
In addition to the classic Row by Row We are again participating in Row By Row Junior, this is for kids aged 6-14. Each child can come in store to receive a free pattern that was designed specifically for this age group. They can than return with a project they made and get a ribbon. On the Row by Row website there is several ideas for projects including bags, pillows, and banners. We have made kits up for several of the projects so come in store with your children or grandkids to get a fun summer project.

  Are you planning on collecting any Rows this year while you travel?
