I wrote about a row quilt idea back in <a href=\"http:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2007\/04\/design-ideas-for-coffee-quilt\/\" target=\"_blank\">April of 2007<\/a>. I have seen a number of them that I really like. One I remember was from a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sue-nickels.com\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\">Sue Nickels<\/a> machine quilting class I took a number of years ago at an EBHQ workshop. The quilt was called Blue Tulips on Pink Skies and you can see it in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sue-nickels.com\/SueGallery.html\" target=\"_blank\">her gallery<\/a>. She is a great teacher, by the way. I would highly recommend one of her classes.<\/p>\n<p>I haven&#8217;t actually made one as I have plenty of <a href=\"http:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2009\/12\/2009-ufo-report\/\" target=\"_blank\">other UFOs<\/a>! Still, I cannot help being inspired when I see patterns and motifs that might work.<\/p>\n<p>As I was walking to the Courthouse from the parking lot on Tuesday for jury duty, I noticed that the walkway would make a great pattern for a row quilt, especially if you wanted a simple one.<\/p>\n<p>I took this with my phone so there isn&#8217;t much that you can see. The basic idea of the paving was that they had laid three rows of 4patches (right of photo) by the width of the sidewalk. I was late so I didn&#8217;t count. Those four patches were interspersed with many, many (perhaps 20?) of rail fence blocks by the width of the sidewalk.<\/p>\n<p>I would have to figure out how to make the proportions look like the sidewalk without making a quilt that was 1\/8th of a mile long! Perhaps really small blocks? This particular idea might also be a good idea for a monochromatic quilt. Hhhhm lots of food for thought.<\/p>\n<p>Inspiration everywhere!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have been thinking of row quilts on and off for a long time.
