My Happy Place Row Along!

Today's my day to share my row that I designed for the My Happy Place Row Along with Marian at Seams to be Sew.  I hope you have been visiting all the wonderful bloggers and designers that have been releasing their row patterns and entering to win some fabulous prizes!

I have always been a city girl, and the happy place I chose to design is the sunset/sunrise with a city skyline.  When I designed the pattern I was living in Minneapolis, knowing that I had the potential to be moving to another city.  This row is inspired by the Minneapolis skyline, but it's definitely more generic and can be representative of any city!

When I moved to Minneapolis in 2013, I was looking at condos in the uptown area and was able to snap this amazing photo of downtown.

Flash forward to early this summer, we were a friend's housewarming and I was able to get another spectacular view of downtown.

There are just so many happy memories that I associate with the skyline view and hanging out with friends on rooftops.

I hope you enjoy my pattern!

Northcott Fabrics sponsored this Row Along and provided my skyline fabric - Artisan Spirit Shimmer in Black.  I think it gives the skyline some really fun depth like city lights.  Here is the combination of fabric that I chose, I used plain solids for the sunset.

Make sure to share the happiness by visiting the other Bloggers/Designers that have rows that are shared today as well!
