Row by Row Info February 2021

Here is the Row by Row Information:







Every member is encouraged to make one row of quilt blocks to equal 48 inches wide


If the finished size of your block is 12” (12 1/2” before joining together) you will need 4 blocks for a 48 “row.  6 - 8” blocks = 48”, 8-6” blocks =48”. Keep in mind your blocks should be squared up 1/2 inch larger than your finished block size. If your blocks are a different size you could add sashing to make your row measure 48 inches.  


These rows will be sewn together into Row by Row quilts by the program committee members. 

  

This is a great project to get everyone involved in contributing to charity quilts without committing to an entire quilt. 


Of course we encourage you to continue making quilts if you can.  


Please use good quality fabric, cheerful colors recommended. If you need fabric, Susan T..... Has some strips and squares.   

 

Dale will tell us at a later date on when and where to drop our rows off. But we like to have them be done the end of March.  

 

***When you drop off your row, you receive a special “thank you gift” that will be a fun new challenge project.🇺🇸 ****

 

Any questions email Dale.  



Thank You  Programs
