Wifely Wednesday 76 & 77

Block 76 Sawtooth

This block looks like it needs a trunk for this tree.

Block 77 Seasons

I am so happy when an easy block pops up

Wifely Wednesday 74 & 75

Block 74 Ribbons

This is another block I had to make 2 times.

Block 75 Rosebud

I used my triagulations on this one also.

It is a cute block.

Wifely Wednesday 72 & 73

Block 72 Railroad

Block 73 Rainbow Flowers

This one had corner blocks that I eliminated

and made it more like a log cabin block.

Wifely Wedesday 70 & 71

Block 70 Prairie Queen

Have I mentioned how much I love this Hideaway fabric?

Block 71 Puss in the Corner

I know it is fussy cut as a straight picture and will be on point in the quilt.

It will be a hidden treasure.

Wifely Wednesday 68 & 69

Block 68 Postage Stamp

This one was great for all the little scraps I have been collecting.

Block 69 Practical Orchard

Another Easy Peasy block.

Wifely Wednesday 66 & 67

I am still plugging away on my Farmer's Wife Blocks.

Block 66

Periwinkle

This one I had to make a 2nd time.

I had cut the pieces and put them into a baggie then couldn't figure the correct background placement.

Recut and went together beautifully.

Block 67

Pinetree

A block like this really makes me love my triagulations CD.

Wifely Wednesday #64-65

Another week,

Another 2 blocks.

Block 64 Peace & Plenty

I wasn't sure I was liking this block from the picture in the book.

I almost looked for a substitute block.

However I really like it after all.

Block 65 Peaceful Hours

Please don't look to close at the points.

I hope that they will get hidden in the finished quilt

among the 111 blocks.

Wifely Wednesday #62-63

Finished 2 more Farmer's Wife blocks.



Block 62 Old Windmill

This block took a lot of Frogging.

Block 63 Ozark Maple Leaf

This is a fun block

Wifely Wednesday #60-61

I am so happy to be working on my Farmer's Wife blocks again.

I am not seeing them around bloggity land so much.

Maybe people are just taking a break and they will start showing up again.

Block #60 Noon & Light

I am happy to be back using my templates again.

Block #61 Northern Lights

I so love this blue & yellow fabric together.

I am thinking that Hideaway might be my favorite fabric line.

Too bad it is getting harder to find.

I did buy an 2nd Fat Quarter Bundle for a future project.

Wifely Wednesday #49

It has been a little too long.

This week I figured I best get back at my Farmer's Wife blocks



Block 59

Night & Day

This is my 2nd attempt at this block.

I paper pieced this one.

I don't know if it is just me but I took a lot of extra fabric to paper piece.

Maybe I will go back to templates.

Wifely Wednesday #55-58

Yippee!

This is my half way post!



Block 55 Linoleum

This is a fun block

Block 56 Maple Leaf

Block 57 Morning

I think maybe I need to stop using the red & white gingham

Block 58 Mother's Dream

I like the way the x looks inside the red

Wifely Wednesday #52-54

3 more of my Farmer's Wife blocks.



Block 52 Hovering Hawks

I like my colors but I am not loving this block.

Block 53 Jackknife

This is such a fun block.

Color choice really changes the look of this block.

Block 54 Kitchen Woodbox

I am really happy with the contrast of this block.

Wifely Wednesday #49-51

It is so fun to have a bunch of these cut out so I can just sit down and sew.

I think I will be taking another evening and getting a bunch more cut out.



Block 49 Honeycomb

The contrast on this one is nice.

Block 50 Honey's Choice

What a fun block.

Block 51 Hovering Birds

These fabrics are so wonderful

Wifely Wednesday #46-48

3 more blocks. 

Block 46 Hill & Valley

This is another block that looks better in real life

Block 47 Homemaker

These y seams went together easier then I thought.

I really might take on a y seam quilt when this one is done

Block 48 Homeward Bound

I love the color placement on this one.

Wifely Wednesday #43-45

The Farmer's Wife quilt along has taken a little break,

however I will still be posting my blocks.

Block 43 Garden Path

Needs to be Squared but I am happy with it.

Block 44 Gentleman's Fancy

I love this yellow & blue together.

Block 45 Grape Basket.

I really like this block.

The picture doesn't show the colors as lovely as they are.

Wifely Wednesday #38-42

Yeah 5 more Farmer's Wife blocks finished.

I even have 5 more cut out and ready to sew.

Cutting these blocks is perfect for doing while I am watching football on Sundays.

Block 38 Four Winds

This one reminds me that I will eventually have to square all of these up. 

Block 39 Friendship

It is a special treat when an easy block sneaks in.

It seems like the are few and far between.

Block 40 Friendship Block

The colors on this one are better in person.

Block 41 Friendship Star

Very nice to get another easy one this week.

Block 42 Fruit Basket

The yellows in this line just makes me SO happy.

Wifely Wednesday #33-37

I missed last week but have made up for it this week.

It seems that I am seeing fewer of these blocks on blogs as the weeks have gone by.

I guess people must be dropping off.

I am officially 1/3 of the way through my blocks.

Block 33 Farmer's Puzzle

I put this together all wrong the first time so this is my 2nd attempt.

I ended up drafting it out and it went together very easy after that.

Block 34 Flock

This one was pretty fast too.

Block 35 Flower Basket

My handle is a little small but overall I like it.

Maybe it will seem better once it is sewn into the quilt

Block 36 Flower Garden Path

This one was NO fun.

I don't like how it went together but am not going to put myself through it again.

Block 37 Flower Pot

I am glad I committed to doing these in order.

This block has Y seams so it would have been at the very bottom of my completion list.

However the Y's went together easy.

Maybe I am ready for a quilt that has Y seams.

I have the pattern for this quilt I have been wanting to make. 

I think I just need the time.

Wifely Wednesday #29-32

 Another 2 weeks worth completed so,

One week closer to catching up with the a-long.

I even have 3 blocks cut out for next week.

Block 29 Economy

I just love green & yellow together

especially this green & yellow.

Block 30 End of Day

I just noticed that this block is wrong.

The little triangles should be on the outside.

Since I love the pinwheel so much it will stay wrong.

Do you thing anybody will notice the little wrong block on the finished quilt.

I don't think so either.

Block 31 Evening Star

Bee really liked this one.

Block 32 Farmer's Daughter

I am really happy with this one.

Soon I will need to take a picture of all the blocks together and see what colors need to be added.

I am so in love with these Hideway fabrics that I ordered myself a fat quarter bundle to replace the one being used on this quilt.

Wifely Wednesday #25-28

Just as I was getting caught up with the Farmer's Wife Quilt along,

What should happen?

Well I fell many weeks behind.

I think this is week #21 so I should be on block #42

Lucky for me there is no Farmer's Wife Block police to track me down.

Block #25 Cups & Saucers

Loving the red & yellow together.

Block #26 Cut Glass Dish

For being such small pieces I am very happy with how my seams lined up.

Thank goodness for Triangulations.

Block #27 Darting Birds

I think I need to square this one up a bit.

Block #28 Duck and Ducklings

I am very happy with the fabric choices on this one.

Maybe I can get caught up in the next few weeks.
