Welcome to week three in the EQ7: Seasons Row Along, hosted by Marian at Seams to be Sew!
I’m especially excited today, because it’s MY WEEK!
Be sure to scroll through for the free PDF pattern for my row, a fun alternative project idea and to enter to win one of THREE fun gifts!
Today my fellow designers are:
Reeze Hanson at Morning Glory Designs – Summer
Marian Pena at Seams To Be Sew – Winter
Carol Swift at Just Let Me Quilt – Fall
Anneka Kornelis at Stof Genoeg – Filler Row
Here it is! My Spring row!
Spring is my favorite season. The winter blues are driven away, the trees begin to bud, spring babies are born and the earth begins to turn green again!
OR Download the PDF Via Craftsy!
PJ7 Pattern will be emailed upon request. Please contact sewhooked@gmail.com.
Hear me talk about my row and other projects I’m working on my video blog, Talk to Me Tuesday!
Visit the TTMT Community.
My idea was to celebrate my favorite season with baby chicks, fresh out of their eggs, pecking around the grass and flowers for something good to eat.
Every pattern in my row is a 6″ (6 1/2″ unfinished) paper pieced block. Follow the instructions in the pattern to make this row, or mix and match to make your own fun row or other quilty project!
I’m absolutely loving the beautiful tonal white background fabric from Northcott! Anyone that visits regularly knows that I’m a bit of a Northcott junkie with Stonehenge being one of my all time favorite fabrics!
The entire row is paper pieced with optional embroidery or paint for the chicks’ eyes. I drew mine on using Tulip Fabric Markers.
Small pieces freak you out? Try chain piecing them!

Want something completely different? The patterns for my row can also be turned into a fun quilt! I plan to make one very much like this for my favorite blanket charity, The Linus Connection.

Fall is my favorite season. Cold nights & warm days, changing leaves & college football. Thanks.
Hi Jennifer!! I love your spring row the chicks are just so cute and I can think of many ways of using your blocks for other projects :0) My fingers are crossed because i love your paperpiecing vintage quilt :0)
Thanks for a cute row, to me…Fall is chick season, we get ours in the Fall so that we never have to worry about losing any to the cold that sometimes happens in the Spring. We have 15 of them right now that are about 2 weeks old.
Look at those chicks! Too sweet 🙂 Thank you for the pdf and PJ7 files 🙂
My favorite season is summer, but my favorite row on this row-by-row is your spring row. The chicks are so cute!
Hi Jennifer- I think my favorite season is spring- once everything starts blossoming. It’s beautiful here in Indiana! Thanks for the cute pattern and the give-a-way!
I love spring! All the new greens, the crocus and tulips, the flowering forsythia and lilacs!
Spring! New greens, crocus, tulips, flowering forsythia and oh, the lilacs!!!
Jennifer, your little chicks are just so cute. And that egg!!! Such a fun row. How clever of you to come up with a little quilt layout for your blocks! Thanks so much for sharing the pattern!
Hi Jennifer, my favorite season is winter, I love decorating for the various holidays, especially Christmas
Summer is my favorite season, and it is all too short! I absolutely love your Spring row, especially how you used it to make a little quilt. Simply adorable, and I do love paper piecing. Thanks for the opportunity to win.
Love your Spring row!
I like Summer as I am a summer baby
Your row is so sweet and putting it in a quilt like that is a great idea! I love watching the Spring flowers bloom.
Having lived in the deep south most of my life I never really experienced FALL. Now I live in SW Missouri and it’s my absolute favorite season!
Fall is my favorite season. Love your row and the quilt blocks using your pattern. Thank you for the free designs, and the tutorials.
these little chicks are so adorable. thank you for the pattern. my favorite season is summer. all the flowers are blooming, the garden is coming to life, the warm weather, no bundling up.
As you know, I love this row, I love the video, it’s amazing how busy you are and still find time for all the many things you do. Turning this into a quilt also is a fab idea, love that you thought to baste the row into place so it’s easily taken apart.. I have really enjoyed having you be part of this Row-Along with me Jennifer and I hope we see each other more often.
What and adorable row…perfect for Easter. As for me, it’s fall. Love the trees turning and the weather cooling off. Thanks for the wonderful row and tutorial
As you know I love this row, I had no idea how busy you really are, but I am simply amazed that you do all that you do. I thought it was pretty clever to baste the row together so that you can take it apart later to put it in a quilt, that’s a very clever trick, thanks for sharing it in the video. Thank you sew much for participating with me in this Row Along. I hope we’ll have many more bright spots in the future.. You’ve really and truly been a gem.
I have a hard time choosing a season! Colorado is so beautiful all year around. If I *had* to choose, I’d say fall because I’m ready for the fall colors and the cool weather!
Fall is my favorite season and it is on the way! Yippee! Halloween is also my favorite holiday!
I love your row!!! My favorite season is fall, love the colors and smell of leaves, crisp air…
Love the chicks row…thank you for another wonderful pattern. My favorite season is fall. Cool weather, football, apple picking, pumpkins…and of course Halloween.
Fall is my favorite season. I like the cooler temperatures, the changing colors and the wonderful scents.
I forgot to mention, that the download isn’t working. I either get an error message or it comes up with a blank page. I have tried several different times. Is there another way to get the pattern?
Hi Susan, it seems to be a Google error. I’ve added the pattern download to Craftsy while I work on the issue: http://shrsl.com/?~9u77
I I love Autumn, I like the temps cooling down, the changing colors and Apple Hill!

Love your row! Cute little chicks! Looking forward to your TMT each week too.

Great chicks. I love summer.
Seems like Fall Fever is running high this week. I am also a lover of Fall. I may live in the Sunshine State but I have to go home to the mountains of NC every October. Thanks for all the work you do and share with us.
Such a cute row. My favorite season is Fall, love the colors, the harvest of foods, and cool weather.
My favorite time of year is Fall
Thank you for being on WordPress, in spite of some things that don’t work on it. I really much prefer it for me, and for blogs on which to comment. Your row is adorable! I’m not a fan of paper-piecing, but I might have to knuckle down and do these blocks. Either as a row or as a baby quilt, it’s adorable! I also appreciated how many times you put the link in the post. You made it really EASY to get the pattern!
Summer would be my favorite season. I enjoy gardening and love to be outside when the weather is nice.
I like all seasons. they each have there own unique qualities. I love to paper piece. Your quilt is beautiful.
Summer, no school. More time with grand children! !
Fall is my favorite season, although there are things I like about every season. Even though it is many years since I was in school, fall always seems like the time of new beginnings and new opportunities, plus I just love the cooler weather after a long Texas summer.
Love your spring time row but winter is actually my favorite season! I love watching the snow fall and curling up under a pile of blankets with a cup of coffee and a good book. Winter gives you an excuse to stay in your warm flannel pajamas.
My favorite time of year is the spring with all the AZ desert wildflowers and warm (not hot!) weather.
I love summer. Our winters are very long and cold, so it’s great to be able to be outside. cdahlgren at live dot com
Love your row. Also your blog.
Fall is my favorite time of year
I have to say that I love fall. The beautiful colors with cooler air.
I love Summer (and spring) when I can be outside enjoying my garden! Your row is very cute!
I love the autumn so colorful!
The Vintage pattern would be perfect for using up the thirties fabrics that I have.
Fall is my favourite season. I love the cooler temperatures. It makes for great walking weather, the leaves are gorgeous in all their changing colours and I absolutely love kicking the fallen leaves as I walk.
I just love your patterns!!!
Fall is my favorite! The cooler weather just perks me right back up! pbstrand@msn.com I love, love, love the chicks! Thank you! pbstrand@msn.com
I love winter!
My favorite season is summer. Have a wonderful day!
Summer is my favorite!
I love spring when colors come alive from the dead of winter. Fall is beautiful too with the changes of color.

I believe I enjoy fall the most– my favorite color palette, changing weather and not such a fast pace.
I share the same love of spring as you do! I love seeing the world around me come alive again after a very long cold, snowy winter. It is worth waiting for!
What cute little chicks! I think I like fall best. It is cooler, the weather is more stable, and it is leading up to the holidays. Thanks for the chance.
TTMT is the highlight of my week. After work on Tuesdays, I drop everything and get to my computer to check in with you. Thanks!
My favorite season is Autumn. The beautiful fall colors and cool nights.
Fall is my favorite time of year. I love the cooler temps, and the colors of fall foliage.
