I am super excited to participate in the My Happy Place Row Along put on by Seams to be Sew!
Here it is! My big reveal! Here is my row!
I love to travel, especially with my husband. Some of my favorite trips have been on a cruise ship! I really love sitting on the deck, looking out on the beautiful blue water, watching the sunset, and exploring new places.
That is why I chose to make a Cruise Ship row.
This is pretty easy to make. It is broken into pieces and pieced together in rows. The windows are appliquéd on, but you can easily use buttons instead!
This is how it looks after I turned it into a table runner.
I added some borders and quilted the water with waves and the sky with fluffy clouds. For the ship, I just quilted along the outline and around each window.
The instructions for this row are available in my shop. They will be free for September 27th through October 4th, 2018. After that they will be available for purchase in the same place.
Another great part of this Row Along is the giveaways going on! Enter below.
The giveaway for my blog is for a Inspired LED Sewing Machine Light.
This is a $30 value and the shipping is to be paid by the winner.
There is also a month long giveaway going on for a copy of EQ8! This is a $239.95 value!
More specific information can be found here.
Don't forget to check out the other designers that are participating in this awesome Row Along.

Paypal fees are added to that amount to cover that fee. All fabric bundles from Michael Miller, Hoffman, and Moda will be shipped via Priority Mail to protect the fabric itself.
- Please note, every effort is made to protect the prizes. They go into a plastic bin when I receive them, and it is covered by an air tight cover. I have a dog in my home and I have a smoker in my home, so I do everything possible to protect the prizes.
- Most companies are very good about getting prizes off to customers quickly also, but some companies are overseas, so please allow all sponsors a 2-week time period before you report to me that you still haven’t received your prize. When the company is overseas, it can take 6 weeks to 90 days for an item to also arrive.
- Whether or not you read the above, the rules for giveaways are in place to protect everyone. I do not want to hear you didn’t read them, they will be posted on my blog daily during each featured day. There is no excuse for not reading them.
Thanks for stopping by and have fun quilting!
Love your row. Thanks for a chance to win the LED lights. I really need this.
Thank you for participating in this row along. I’ve never been on a cruise but maybe I’ll do a quilting cruise some day.
Your cruise ship row is beautiful! I’ve been on 1 cruise and enjoyed it. I think it might be time for my husband and me to take another one.
What a wonderful row. Thank you so much. I’ve never been on a cruise. Maybe someday.
I love your row. I have always wanted to take a cruise and maybe someday I will. I cant wait to make your row, I am going to make it a table runner to remind me to save so someday I can go on a cruise.
