Farmer's Wife Check-in: Week 19


Can you believe it????  Week 19.  I am most proud that I have been churning these little guys out each week even though summer is over and I am back to work full time.  This week's blocks were fun!

Block #63 Ozark Maple Leaf


For this block, I used a barely spotted green and some Terrain!  I bought a sample scrap bag of Terrain awhile back before it was even released.  So pretty and vibrant.  It was a bit breezy when I took this picture!

Block # 33 Farmer's Puzzle
Again, I am using scraps.  These are some scraps of Le Petit Poulet by American Jane for Moda.  I bought these scraps as samples too before the line was released.  I did not have quite enough of the blue to get the centre strip to be all blue.  There is a bit of the border print showing with the red stripes but that is okay.  I stressed about it for a bit and then decided what the heck, I am being too fussy!  This block is way less complicated than it appears.  A nice pop of colour!

The stack of these blocks is now significant.  Almost time to throw them all out to see how they play together!

Have a lovely rest of your day!

    mmm cute blocks - I think I spy some Terrain - still love that fabric! Both blocks are really interesting! I might have to buy the book just to get some of these patterns even if I never make the quilt.

    I'm dreaming of some of that gorgeous Terrain, maybe Santa will think I've been a good girl ;)
