Row by Row is back for 2017!  The theme this year is "On the Go".    We have chosen a ride through Table Mountain and the beautiful Wildflowers.  Chico is home to the Wildflower Century Bike Ride.  This bike tour was recently named to the top ten bike tours in the country by "Bicycling" magazine.  Our block showcases an image of our childhood bike with a basket.  The basket can be filled with any treat your heart desires.  We have lots of embellishments.  The background represents the wildflowers found on top of Table Mountain in April with rides takes place.  The riders also roll through the foothills and orchards on a beautiful sunny day.

                    
  

Honey Run Quilters will be continuing in the Row by Row experience for 2016.  We will kick off this year on June 21st.  Our Home Sweet Home block is sure to be one you will want to add to your collection.  Our block is "At Home with the Bidwells, the birds and the bees".  The most famous home in Chico is the Bidwell Mansion and to many of us, the perfect subject for this block.  Chico is also known for its trees, particularly the Hooker Oak.
