Moda All-Stars

I think I love this new Moda All-Stars All In A Row Again book more than the first All in a Row book. Is that possible? Maybe, but I’m not ready to give up the first All in a Row because the combination of the two books means so many more cute quilts! The two books work perfectly together!

Here’s the newest one from The Moda All-Stars!  Isn’t it a cute book?

 

The book is broken down into sections, and I had the Critters and Creatures section.  My row centered around and was inspired by hedgehogs. I just couldn’t help myself because I love hedgehogs!

My hedgehog row quilt is still traveling back to Martingale after Quilt Market, so I can’t show you any close-up photos.  The last I heard my hedgehogs were at a park in Washington, somewhere near Martingale’s office. Thinking about these hedgehogs made me think about pins, and I got inspired to create a little hedgehog pincushion using the hedgehog pattern in this new book!  I put two of my treasured pink heart pins from Tilda in the cushion!

I decided to give away a book to one lucky winner and then give away the little hedgehog pincushion to another lucky winner!  All you have to do to win is leave a comment on this blog about the new book or tell me why this little hedgehog pincushion should travel to your house.  Comments close on November 24th around midnight…

Speaking of midnight, hop on over to Blackbird Design’s blog and read about their “Midnight in the Woods” row.  The minute I saw their row, I fell in love and you will too.

Oh, but wait!  There’s a third prize!  Martingale’s giving away an E-Book for one of you too!  I’ll pick the winners of these prizes after the 24th.

Have fun with this blog hop!

Hugs,

Anne

    I LOVE hedgehogs. I have a cousin who raises and sells them. If I was home more often, I would own one. Your hedgehog pattern is worth the cost of the whole book in my opinion. Great design. Who wouldn’t want a jump roping hedgehog?

    I think the adorable hedgehog pincushion should come and live with me because I live in the woods and I am afraid of animals. Maybe he could help me get over my fear of at least one animal – the hedgehog. He is so cute it would be impossible to be afraid of him, right?

    I think the hedgehog should travel to my house in Texas because then “she” could visit with my friend Julie. I love the background fabric in the pincushion and the placement of the hedgehog…looks like she’s holding a bouquet of flowers. How sweet!

  • Angela Bowling

    I have never made a row quilt before and it looks like so much fun. This book would be so fun to work from. And the hedgehog pincushion is so cute. They are such cute little critters.

  • Martina

    Oh wonderful! I just love your row with these sweet hedgehogs! And the pincushion is so adorable! It would just be a source of joy to look at it whenever I enter my sewingplace!

    I’m going to have to add this book to my collection. I think I need the first book too. The hedgehog is so cute. It may be the first row I make. :)

  • Gisela Buitendag

    I read my children Beatrix Potter stories, but where we live in South Africa they never saw one ! They are so adorable!

  • Rebecca Stipe

    There is just something about row by row quilts that I love and this little pincushion would look so cute next to my machine

  • Cynthia Fox

    I met my first hedgehog at my house two years ago. He was darling even though he ate all my flowers to nubs. I would love this pincushion as a remembrance of him. Also, I’m a fan of yours (have been for quite awhile) and wanted to take this opportunity to tell you how much I love your patterns and kits.

    Ever since we read Mrs. Tiggywinkle by Beatrix Potter over 35 years ago, hedgehogs have been a family mascot. Being in the US, we had to have pet hedgehog to enjoy. So this little guy would fit right in at our family homes! He is adorable!

    Hi Anne,
    I absolutely adore your little hedgehogs row in the new quilt, and the pincushion is just darling. If that pincushion found its way to my house it would go into my daughter-in-law’s Christmas stocking. She’s been wild about hedgehogs since I met her, even before they became so popular. So I made her a patchwork hedgehog pillow for their baby’s nursery three years ago and a diaper/carryall bag with hedgehog print lining. Of course, the book would be a treat as well, then I could make more hedgehogs :)

  • Joyce Carter

    I have seen some of the rows from this book and they are so awesome. This would be a wonderful book to have. I love your hedgehog pincushion. It is as cute as can be. Thank you for the chance to win.

  • Cecilia

    I need to adopt your hedgehog pincushion because I have 4 little granddaughters who would love to meet her. My granddaughters love to play with my pins and pincushions when they visit and they would have so much fun with her. ❤️

    Love the new book!! I’m gonna be ordering both of them soon (if I don’t win one!).
    The little hedgehog pin cushion should travel to its new home with ME!! Here I will keep her all nice and warm in the great state Texas where her brothers and Sisters in the roll got to spend some time!

  • KJ

    I like how the book seems to have different sections. The critter section would be the first one I went to.
    My 2 kitties would love a little hedgehog friend. They’ve never seen one.

    I love, love, love your block. My favourite so far. So much whimsy.

  • Barb H.

    I love this all in a row book. Your jump roping hedgehogs tickled me to the core. It brought back many memories of my jum roping days. Love hedgehogs. Found a little wool coin purse with a hedgehog on it. Would love to win the pin cushion, also.

  • Mary Jo Jones

    Oh I would love your pincushion! I have admired your work for years so it would make me so happy to have a part of you living in my house❤️

    I love the book…would like to own it…anything with you in it would be great!

    Have an awesome day❤️

  • Debbie

    Adorable about wraps it up.Good luck to someone( hopefully me) for winning this book. The pin cushion is truly inspirational and daughter has a hedge hog so I bet she would end up with him.

  • Signe

    What a tease … can’t wait to see the quilt in detail. The book is a must have and that little hedgehog doesn’t seem to mind that a rainy winter has already arrived at my house.

  • Mary B

    I have the first book. I can’t wait to get my hands on this one, too. We live out in the woods & have all kinds of critters around us. We might as well add a hedgehog to the assortment. LOL!!

  • Ruth Plowman

    I have never seen a hedge hog so if I won, I could introduce it to other Arizonans. Perhaps its best friend would be a desert tortoise.

  • Janet Hoonard

    Your little hedgehog ( if won) would travel to the twin sister of a young lady fighting cancer. Sarah has been at her sisters Becca’s side and her biggest cheerleader for the last 4 years. She deserves a treat. Thanks!

  • Marilyn Dunstan

    I’ve never seen a hedgehog in Florida since I’ve been here. He needs to come down here to start a family. And the book wood get plenty of use!

  • Judy Chastain

    I love the variety rows give a quilt. I can’t wait to get my book, so I can start with those adorable hedgehogs. Or, I can buy my own book and give the cutest hedgehog pincushion a great home.

  • Gale

    Your sweet little hedgehog pincushion should come to my house to help get me through the long harsh winter on it’s way. Love your row, so this book may have to be added to my Santa list.
