I finally got my borders on my farmers wife quilt. I love the white border. I think I'll do a coloured binding, maybe scrappy what do you think? I do like scrappy bindings but maybe this quilt just needs the one fabric as binding.
So many pretty blocks and all my favourite fabrics in the one quilt.
My on line stitching group had a travel swap and we had to make our partners something they could take with them when they travel. I made Fiona a stitching wallet, Hopefully it will fit into her bag when she goes away. I also included a stitching project for her.
My friend Vicki made for me and she gave me a beautiful travel shoulder bag with lots of compartments and a beautiful travel wallet.
I love my bag, thankyou Vicki.
Its been a busy day so I'll say goodnight, I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and you find some sewing time.

Your quilt top is amazing Leanne, so vibrant and colourful........so clever.x
It looks terrific Leanne! So much work went into creating all those different blocks. If you stick to one colour binding how do you pick which colour?!
Leanne your quilt is amazing. Scrappy binder would look great. Love it.
The quilt looks fabulous...a wonderful achievement! I think a scrappy binding could be fun, but whatever you choose will be perfect.
Your quilt is just beautiful Leanne.

Hi Leanne your farmes wife quilt is simply gorgeous. Love the fabrics. I think I made about ten blocks for my farmers wfe but didnt like them to scrappy but seeing how well yours has turned out I may get the book out again. :) Will write to you soon.
Wow, what an awesome quilt and the travel swap was so much fun. I love my stitching wallet and can't wait to get the project started.
Your Farmers Wife quilt is just stunning Leanne. Lovely swap projects
This is one of the pretties Farmer's Wife quilts that I've seen. I like that you sashed between the blocks with white before sewing the blocks together.
wow You Farmers wife quilt is nice. Called in to see you last week. I asked Lillian where you were. Home she said. Early says I . No said Lillian it was 3:30 LOL silly me. Also a little boy in the shop, I was chatting to asked me was Lillian my Grandmother. ROFLMAO. I loved that kid. Not so sure Lillian did. she is younger than me.
Your quilt is gorgeous Leanne, I love the white border with all the beautiful fabrics. Lovely gifts too. hugs
The quilt looks fabulous Leanne - I agree with you: one colour binding would be lovely (maybe turquoise/aqua?). Wasn't it a great swap! You made/received lovely presents.
