Row Robin starts Jan. 2016 All info on first post.

I also, received my row from Luann last week. It was good for my soul, and showed me a wonderful way of zipping out a quick row, if there is ever a month or two that I feel time is short. And, she definitely followed my winter theme. Thank you Luann! Love the snowmen!




I am finishing up Dorothy's row, and have my February row almost done. And am "thinking" on the March row. Wish I knew more about the elusive Rosemarie!

Here's a pic of the fabric I received from Luann


I'm working on my rows - two more blocks to go before I can sew everything together. A bout of hand foot mouth in my youngest and stomach flu in my oldest prevented me from getting any work done this weekend. Hoping I can finish up and put it in the mail next week!

Just in case some of you are not getting messages from the Prayer list Forum, one of our rowers has just lost her mother. Pam7040 posted that she read on Facebook that Limbania just lost her mother this morning. Prayers going her way, and a row in a week or two! (She is my February row.)

So sorry to hear it

Happy day....received Jan. row from Barb ! Beautiful fall colors stitched "flip and sew" style on muslin foundation.
Perfect ! what a start ! Feeling pretty lucky, too.....that my row got here ! When Lotti did the addresses...mine was
not quite right and she made the correction....Please all rowers ....It is just plain Council, Idaho....Not Council Bluff...that is Iowa
and I have had mail pieces get lost that way.. so check that list, please. And I'd like to ask you all to sign and date your
row to me..on the front...I know that I will forget who made what down the road and art should be signed...IMHO. Thanks all and
great row Barb !

Fabulous, well done Barb

What a beautiful looking row you have made Barb. Lucky Marilyn.

[twiglet]

So sorry Limbania..thoughts and prayers are with you.
Well done Barb! Lucky you Marilyn :-)

love that row from Barb! What a fun technique!

Here are my goodies from Luann -- a largeish piece of beautiful beach colored fabric, with glittery bits!, and a small bit as well, and *also* a small narrow bit of Spoonflower "pieced" fabric. Wowsa! Luann, did other people's bits get into my envelope by mistake? I feel greedy, having so much goodness!

(ignore the yellow and blue scraps above & below, and sorry for the poor lighting in my room...)





Also finished the row I'm sending out, but pics of that will have to come from the recipient when she gets it Will say it was a great deal of fun to make, and I can't wait for next month! This is just the kind of "interruption" project I need -- I"m starting a very big project next week, and I get tired working on the same thing all the time, so like small little things as interrupters. These rows are going to be perfect for that!

Limbana - so sorry to hear of your mother. My thoughts are with you

Barb your piecing looks great! So was this essentially "paper piecing" on a muslin foundation? I've not seen this before.

Limbana - I too am sorry to hear re your Mom. Sending positive thoughts your way!
Wendy, Rosemary, Dorothy, Heather and Jen - Thank you for the compliments on Marilyn's row. As Marilyn mentioned it's 'flip and stitch' sewn on muslin foundation squares.
Jen - yes you could paper piece but then you'd need to remove the paper. Bonnie Hunter has a tutorial of this method ("String Quilting") on her web page: http://www.quiltville.com.

Barb--great row made for Marilyn!

[Jdeluka]

Thanks Barb! I'll check out that video this weekend. :lol:

Marilyn's row is wonderful! And, I received her row to me in yesterday's mail. I will take a picture of it later today. It is perfect! And, it is signed and dated with the year "TQS Row Robin 2016". I think I will do that also on all of the rows that I send out.
