My Farm Girl Vintage Book - YaY !!! ...


I'm so excited to finally 
be able to announce
that my next book…
Farm Girl Vintage
is available for pre-order at 

YaY!!!

I'm thrilled that
once again... 
are the publishers 
for my new book:)



On the cover is my 
Farm Girl Sampler Quilt

 There are patterns and 
step by step instructions for 
45 sampler blocks in the book…
in two sizes.
6" and 12" blocks.



Also included in the book is my
 Quilty Barn Along quilt pattern…


As well as my Silo Barn pattern...



And my Farm Girl Tractor Block:)


Besides the Farm Girl Sampler that is on the front cover…
there are three additional samplers in the book.
Above is my 
Scrappy Hay Stack Sampler
using both 12" and 6" blocks.


It's surrounded by 6" Hay Stack blocks.



You can see a portion of another sampler quilt
folded on the end of this group photo.
All of these quilts 
(as well as many others not shown in this post) 
are in the book as well!
I'm telling you…
I have been sewing non stop for quite a while
so that I could pack this book full of 
down on the farm goodness!



Like quilts your grandma used to make to keep her family warm at night...


And a Baby Chick Quilt...


As well as a Mama Hen quilt...


 The Hen House of course!


How about a Summer Picnic quilt...


or Farm House Lane?


To tell you the truth…
I havn't even stopped to
 count how many quilts are in there…
just trust me when I say ALOT!!!


I also have included several runners
 in three different sizes
 using different Farm Girl blocks.

Above is one of the 
small runners using the
 Churn Dash block.


This is one of the large runners
using my Apron Strings block.


There are still many more quilts and projects to show 
to you...


If you follow me on 
my Instagram ...
 you have seen many of my daily
 Farm Girl Vintage sneak peeks
over the past several months.


CLICK HERE
to pre-order by reserving your copy.


I have designed an additional new pattern 
as a thank you to those who pre-order my book.

It's called Canning Season...


and includes this mini mason jar quilt...


And two cute and scrappy mason jar covers…
in two sizes of course:)

Next week 
Kimberly 
and the Girls from
 It's Sew Emma
will be here…at my cottage
for the final photo shoot for the book.
It's going to be a blast!!!

There will be lots more to see so stay tuned:)
Have a Farm Girl Vintage kind of day!!!

    How exciting! Another book for you :) and for me :) I love the quilts you have made for the book!! This is exactly what I want. Some pretty, some humorous, and all giving a nod to vintage and the farm while using the fresh, bright colors I want to use!! I like traditional, but I hate the old "country" colors. They always look "muddy" to me. I cannot wait to get this book and I'm betting I make the Cherry Quilt first simply because it is the quilt of my dreams! I have always loved the cherry motif, and you have modernized it right up for me. I'm going to go back to examine all those great blocks in the sampler...and the Hen Quilt!! Oh my goodness, too funny and too, too cute, I have to make it! When is this book coming out again? Don't worry, I'll look it up, it's just that I have a bunch to finish before this comes out because I will be dropping everything! Do I sound a bit excited? I don't look at Instagram. I didn't know this was coming, and I love it!!

    Awesome, MUST HAVE book! I'm a country girl at heart and it has all the elements I love. Canning jars, tractor, barns barns and more barns, cherries, pears, and so much more. I'm going to pre order mine now so I can get the canning jar quilt. I just bought a case of Purple Ball Anniversary jars.
