After seeing so many beautiful Farmers wife quilts on the internet I decided to make my own version. I have made a sampler quilt using 8 inch blocks. Here are a few of my favourites. I love the yellow and red with a splash of green.
I do love this blue block to, its called Nautilus.
This block has lots of 1 1/2 inch squares, it took ages to put together and its so pretty.
I have made 49 blocks, I think it would make a good size lap quilt.
Every time I look at it I think I want to add another row. I love going through my book and picking out different blocks. I might just have to make a few more.
A little bit of floral inspiration from my garden. I love taking photos with my new camera. Can't you tell. lol.
Have a wonderful Sunday.

I agree with Christine! Your blocks look amazing! What a good idea! What book are you using? What kind of camera? I need a new one but want a Canon Rebel and can't afford it! Now I want to start another Farmers Wife after seeing your blocks....sigh...

How I love your beautiful summerflowers, we had snow again today! thought that Spring was coming a very little bit, but no, it's very cold.
You joined the farmer's wife club!! I made 40 blocks already in green and white. Your blocks are wonderful. I have bought a charmpack from Fig tree this weekend and it looks a bit like that.
