Moda All-in-a-Row Quilt

Back in early 2016, Moda/Martingale introduced a new book called "Moda All-Stars: All in a Row," along with a fun quilt-along with AMAZING prizes. 

I kinda LOVE row quilts and definitely don't make them often enough. I was SUPER lucky to win a copy of the book AND some fabric!  The stars really aligned for this quilt to come together.  :)

It's made using Sherri and Chelsi's first fabric line, "Bright Sun," which I LOVE.  (I threw in a few greens from my stash for the grass and trees.)  I basically just made one row at a time from the book, picking from my favorites until I had enough for this little quilt. 

I knew this one would need a special finishing touch, so I did some custom quilting in each row.  Aren't those little shorts so cute?

I just love this fabric line.  :)

And these little birdies.  :)

For the back, I decided to use this piece of fabric my friend Abby gave me.  I mean, come on - it has little birds and flowers on it so it totally matches!

I thought the quilt needed just a touch more green, so I chose this pretty print (which matches the dresden flowers) for the binding.  :)

This quilt was SO much fun to make!  Now I want to make another row quilt. For now, this one is listed in my shop HERE.
