Well, in a pile on my dining room table. In alphabetical order.
Seriously, folks, I’m counting down the days until I can stop piecing these blocks. I need twelve more from the book, and another nine to fill my quota for the quilt top. Twenty-one more.
I.
Can.
Do.
This.
Just ignore the crazy quilter in the corner, frothing at the mouth when this is all over.
#097 Waste Not
Paper-pieced, because I didn’t feel like figuring out angles. Super quick and easy. I’m fairly certain that the cream and aqua fabric is a Anne Maria Horner. Fairly surprised by its transparency. Maybe I actually bought a voile?
#099 W.C.T.U.
More of the pink gingham, which I seriously adore. I believe the green fabric is a Pat Bravo. Mostly paper-pieced, because I know that I would never have gotten this right in the wee hours, which is when I normally sew.
#108 Windmill
Done entirely out of the scrap bag(s), and with more symmetry than in the book. I have a thing about balance…
#096 Tulip
Again, not nearly as scrappy as the block in the book. I just couldn’t do it. My need for symmetry won out.
#032 Farmer’s Daughter
The very last of the rotary friendly blocks! Also done from the scrap bags, and taking inspiration from a swap block I did recently.
#088 Star of Hope
Paper-pieced because of being based on a 5-grid.
There are something like five basket blocks in the Farmer’s Wife Sampler. I cannot tell you how tired I am of basket blocks.
#073 Rainbow Flowers
Another do-over. I’ve misplaced the original attempt at this block, which is fine. I didn’t like my first attempt at it. Much happier now with the more saturated colors and more interesting prints.

this is another great batch of blocks. i still have one block left and 7 do-overs, but i’ve been sashing like a mad woman and starting to piece them 8 at a time. have you chosen sashing fabric?
I’ve decided on a setting… I want to finish the blocks before I get into deciding on what goes where, since it’ll be more of a scrappy setting, rather than sashing them.
Great set of blocks… It makes me want to start one tonight.
Thank you! These have been fun – I’m just ready to be done with this quilt. The end is in sight, and I’m starting to feel the burn!
I’m playing cachutp on blog reading and so sorry I missed the vote. But love your quilt backs. It takes time to make backs like that – and it’s art for both sides of the quilt. I often turn my quilts over and they’re pretty plain on the back. Also love the ME quilting. At our LQS, they have a beautiful quilt that was pieced and basted and then each block was quilted in the machine. One just has to be careful to manage the weight of the quilt so it doesn’t affect the movement of the embroidery machine. I am like you that I like the continuous designs too. EmbLib has some good ones.
