This is the row quilt I have shared before when it was a completed top. It is now quilted and bound. I like it a lot more since it was quilted. The machine quilter did a great job on the quilting.
A friend asked me if I would be interested in participating in a row quilt exchange. Immediately I said yes to that. The exchange group was started in March 2010. The rows were completed mid 2011. It took a few years in the "waiting to be quilted" pile before this quilt rose to the top and was actually quilted. I finished the binding last weekend.
Last night I took my quilt to my guild's monthly meeting to share it. There were three other women there who had participated in this row quilt exchange. They also had brought their finished quilts from our row quilt exchange. It was great to stand together at show and tell with all our quilts. It was fun to see what the other ladies had done with their rows.
If you have an opportunity to participate in a round robin, or a row quilt exchange, please take the opportunity to take part. Hopefully you will enjoy it as much as I did, and have done. I have many block exchanges that need to be sewn together. A few of those block exchanges made it to the "finished" stage. This is my first row quilt exchange and my quilt is actually finished, and it is my first UFO finish for the year 2014. Hooray!

It is so pretty! I love how all the colors blended from one row to the next. I've never participated in a row challenge because I worry how one row would look with the previous row, or how I would fit the blocks together to match the previous row of blocks. Yours looks so nice! Nice quilting too!
Hurray Hurray for you! Oh the quilt is just so lovely - a good cheery quilt for winter days - or perfect for spring or summer. I love the colors and the blocks and the way you've arranged them. Great job!
Whoo hoo! Doesn't it feel good to have a finished project?! The quilt looks super. Love your colors, of course.
I've never done a row quilt before, but the concept has intrigued me for a while now.
I have many exchange blocks that still need to be sewn together!
love your row quilt! Another beauty!!!
