Row Along: It’s A Garden Party
English version below
Der erste Beitrag auf diesem Blog!
Letztes Jahr habe ich bereits am Row Along von Marian Pena teilgenommen. Damals noch ohne eigenen Blog, als Gastautorin bei www.cleverchameleon.com.au/blog/ von Dione Gardner-Stephen. Heuer habe ich das erste Mal meinen eigenen Blog. Ein großes Dankeschön geht auch an Marian, die diesen Row Along organisiert!
Das Thema des heurigen Row Along lautet: It’s A Garden Party
Das erste was mir zu unserem Garten einfällt, sind die Apfelbäume, die im Garten stehen. Insgesamt sind es 4 Apfelbäume. Einen davon haben mein Mann und ich vor nun 12 Jahren zu unserer Hochzeit bekommen. Der Baum ist jetzt schon groß genug, sodass die Kinder schon auf diesem Baum klettern können.
Zu jeder Jahreszeit locken die Bäume andere Besucher zu einer Party. Im Frühling sind sie voll von Blüten und es summt ununterbrochen. Im Frühsommer machen die Jungvögel, heuer waren es Elstern, ihre ersten Flugversuche von Ast zu Ast. Auch im Herbst lassen sich allerhand Insekten am Baum finden. Und über die letzten Äpfel, ganz oben auf den Ästen, freuen sich im Winter die Vögel, die bei uns überwintern.
An all das habe ich gedacht, als ich die Anleitung für dieses Jahr entworfen habe. Northcott unterstützt auch in diesem Jahr diesen Bloghop. Danke dafür! Ich durfte mir für mein Design 4 Fat Quarter (FQ) aussuchen. Ich habe mich für je 1 FQ in rot (9020-240), grün (9020-780), hellblau (9020-42) und rosa (9020-21) entschieden.
Die Anleitung für mein Design kann unten runtergeladen werden. Ich habe mich für die Paper Piecing-Technik entschieden.
The first post on this blog!
Last year, I already participated in the Row Along of Marian Pena. At that time without my own blog, as guest author at www.cleverchameleon.com.au/blog/ by Dione Gardner-Stephen. This year, I have my own blog for the first time. A big thank you also goes to Marian, who organizes this Row-Along!
The theme of this year’s Row Along is: It’s A Garden Party
The first thing that comes to my mind about our garden are the apple trees that are in the garden. In total there are four apple trees. My husband and I got one of them twelve years ago for our wedding. The tree is now already big enough so that our children can climb on it.
In every season, the trees attract other visitors to a party. In spring ,they are full of flowers and it hums continuously. In early summer, the young birds, this year they were magpies, make their first flight attempts from branch to branch. In autumn, all kinds of insects can be found on the trees. And about the last apples, right on top of the branches, the birds, which spend the winter with us, are happy in winter.
I thought of all this when I designed the manual for this year. Northcott supports this blogshop again this year. Thanks for that! I was allowed to choose 4 Fat Quarter (FQ) for my design. I chose 1 FQ each in red (9020-240), green (9020-780), light blue (9020-42) and pink (9020-21).
The instructions for my design can be downloaded below. I have decided to use the paper piecing technique, patch work and applique.

I like apples, but my favorite fruit is strawberries! Sweet row. Thanks for sharing!
You are very welcome.
I like strawberries too.
Thank you for the beautiful row! I love eating apple anything….
You are very welcome!
I like your row/block. I like apples, but can only eat them cooked as I am allergic to raw tree fruit.. My aunt had a crab apple tree in her garden.
You are very welcome!
love fall because of apples and cool weather
It was my pleasure.
YES!!! loooove apples! We make our own applesauce, after goin to pick them at local orchard 🙂 Thank you for chance to win your Give-a-way too “D
You are very welcome!
I love some kinds of apples. My favorite right now is honeycrisp apples.
Interresting, that every part of our world has different kind of apples.
Love apples and yours look great!
Thank you so much!
Yes, I do love apples, but I love all kinds of fruits. I love apple cider, caramel apples, apple dumplings, and best of all apple crisp! I would love to have fruit trees in my yard. Thank you for your pattern.
You are very welcome!
Thank you so much! I think this would make a wonderful fall or summer table topper, depending on the colors I used for the apple and the stripping. I love it!
A tabletopper is a great idea!
Granny Smith are my favorite apple.
I like Granny Smith too.
Granny Smith apples make the best apple crisp and apple pie. My favorite apple is the Gala . . .but then there is the Golden Delicious . . . and of course the Pink Lady , , , oh, you can’t forget the Ambrosia and the old stand by, the Delicious. As you can see, I’m fond of most of the sweeter apples.
There are so many different kind of apples – one for every recipe.
I love apples. My grandfather owned a large apple orchard when I was young. My dad grew up working in the orchard. We had the only apple tree around that had 3 different types of apples on it. My dad grafted a golden delicious branch and a red delicious branch to a gravensteen apple tree.
That’s a special tree.
Thank you for the block. It is gorgeous.
You are very welcome!
Our family has many happy memories of picking apples at orchards and then enjoying the fruits. Thank you for the pattern and congratulations on this being your first blog!
Thank you so much!
Love apples. The deer and squirrels ate every apple on our tree.
Oh no! The squirrels ate all nuts of our hazelbush this year.
The best part of Fall is apples. There are so many varieties to choose from.
Every year I find a type of apple I haven’t seen before.
Thank you for the beautiful apples I can taste the apple pies already
Mmm homemade applepie
Your apples are beautiful! Thanks for the pattern. I do love apples.
You are very welcome!
I do love apples – apple crisp and apple pie (made with Granny Smith apples). For eating, I like Gala and Fuji. They both have great snap and come in small sizes for a nice quick snack. I wish I had an apple tree.
I like these types of apples too.
Thanks for the wonderful block! I enjoy apple picking and making pies and applesauce. Thanks for sharing.
You are very welcome!
What a wonderful idea for a block. Your trees give you beauty for many months. Thank you for the free pattern.
You are very welcome!
I love apples, too! We have an old apple orchard–and compete with the deer and the elk for them. Within our fenced yard we have planted some new apple trees and are delighted that our small Honeycrisp apple tree has a few apples on it this year.
Congratulations on your first apples.
Thanks so much for the cute row – love the apples
You are very welcome!
I love apples too! What a cute pattern you’ve created!
Lovely row! Apple trees are my favourite fruit trees. 😉
Thank you. This is indeed pretty.
I love apples, too.
Danke
Thank you for the design. My Grandmother and Mother both had apple trees in their yard.
I just enjoy eating them and looking forward to doing your design.

Perfect crop of fruits and flowers from everyone’s garden! Thank you so much for the wonderful addition to our gardens!
Your apples are beautiful! Yes, I love apples!
I love apples! We have a crabapple tree in the yard which is beautiful in spring. Many deer come to our yard to eat them in fall.
Thank you so much for sharing!
