More Farmer's Wife Blocks

My company is finally gone so I got back into the quilting groove this weekend.  I got four more blocks done for my FWQAL.  I also had four blocks from my other Farmer's Wife quilt that I did not use because the colors did not end up fitting in.  I am not sure I still can use them but I've got them up on my design wall with my other blocks.  They are the ones with black and white fabric.  I am still thinking about it.  If you have any opinions please share.  Sorry for the quality of the picture.  Not my best effort.



I also got my son's quilt pin basted.  This is the first time I have done this.  My other two quilts that I completed I used fusiboo.  Speaking of the 2nd quilt I completed.  I sent it off to my granddaughter without taking a picture.  My daughter is supposed to send pix so I can have a record of it.  Pin basting on the floor for a few hours made me a little creaky.  I am going to straight line quilt it.  Not sure exactly how.  I had to stop at the pin basting point and read my book for my mystery book club for Wednesday. It was set in Saudi Arabia.  Being a women a Saudi Arabia sounds like it is very constraining.

  2. Your blocks are very pretty. I think you will be able to use the black and white blocks once you get more blocks made and are able to space them further apart.
    Your quilt is beautiful!!
