All in a Row Blog Hop

Moda All Stars All in a Row

It is 18 days into the new year and I thought we could all use a little help with our new years resolutions.

What does this have to do with a Blog Hop. you may ask.

Hop! Exercise! Get it?

Now I wouldn’t want any os us to over-do-it so for the next 11 days, HOP over to 2 different designers blogs to see how they are taking one of the rows from the All in a Row book and making it in their style of fabrics. Get up and do a little HOP before moving to the next blog post. Then start quilting along from Feb. 1st through March 15th. Now this is where the real exercise comes into play as you jump up and down when you become the winner of some great prizes! Okay, it is not the Publisher’s Clearinghouse or the Powerball, but who wouldn’t want to win books and patterns!! (prize details below)

Thank you to Jennifer Keltner, Karen Burns and all the creative people from Martingale to make all this happen.

    Sounds like a great idea! When I first read on a blog about this hop a little bit ago, I immediately purchased the book knowing that I would love doing a quilt with rows. But according to your blog post, to participate I have to belong to facebook. I’m afraid that leaves me out unless there’s another way to enter my row pic. Lots of people read blogs and have their own, but not everyone wants to join facebook. Any solutions? thanks so much!
