VA Row by Row, Quilter's Corner and Stash Report

Last night I  finished 'Winter's Song' designed by Swirly Girls for Quilter's Corner, located in Midlothian, VA.  I wasn't going to buy this kit because it was more expensive than most, and I don't like to do applique, but the pieces were pre-cut and backed with fusible web, so I bought it.


 
 My machine doesn't have a buttonhole stitch, so I used a narrow zig-zag.  It looks ok, except around the holly berries and musical note.  I think an open toe foot would help.  I'm pretty much stitching blind now.  If I did more applique, I'd buy the proper foot.
 
This is the only winter row I have so far, and I don't expect it to make it into my row quilt.  Maybe it will be a table runner.

I really like that row. It would make a great table runner for the winter.

I would have been tempted to purchase the row kit also since it came ready to use. It is a cute row, congrats on trying something you don't enjoy doing.
