Week 2


I'm on a roll. The blocks for week two of the Farmer's Wife quilt along are supposed to be posted tomorrow but I know I won't have time so I'm posting them tonight.  What a joy this quilt has been to work on so far...of course, I've purposefully been ignoring the difficult blocks.

Block #71: Puss in the Corner (hmm)
Fabric: Moda Authentic dictionary print and two more prints from Denyse Schmidt's line at Joann's.


Block #4: Basket Weave
Fabric: Some random coral/red/orange polka dot print, Lecien strawberries, and one of the Denyse Schmidt prints from Australia (love - why oh why didn't Joann's choose it?).


Never having to repeat a block is a lot of fun - and a good learning experience. I am looking at sampler quilts in a whole new way.

I hope you had a lovely Tuesday and have an even better Wednesday!

  1. Your blocks are just too pretty - you and Ayumi and Kerry too will all have a set with the same kind of cool, vintagey look, I just know it!
