It is almost August, and in a little over a month, this year’s Row Along will start. We have all been busy preparing our patterns and samples, and of course it is all a big secret until the event gets going. But today I want to give you a little sneak peek along with a big shout out and thank you to Northcott Fabrics. They have been sponsoring the Row Along from the beginning, and this year is no exception. We all got to choose up to 1 metre of any of their fabrics, and they even shipped it to us for free. They are very generous in their support of independent designers year after year, and we all appreciate them very much.

I chose two quarter metre cuts and one half metre cut for my row. I needed a night sky and a forest floor and something for a wall, and Northcott’s Stonehenge and Naturescapes collections are always my first choice for fabrics that I want to look as realistic as possible. The night sky is from “Stonehenge Out Of This World”, the forest floor is from “Stonehenge Mighty Pines” and the brick wall is from “Naturescapes”. That’s all I can show you for a sneak peek, now you can let your imagination run wild and try to figure out what I am creating with these particular fabrics. And be sure to come back in September for a fun event with lots of free patterns and giveaways.
