Good morning cute people!
Welcome to week nine of
Farm Girl Fridays:)
We have sewn 15
Farm Girl blocks so far
and number 16 block is
"Feed and Seed"
and turn to page 30
for the pattern and instructions for
both the 6" and 12" Feed and Seed block.
I made so many quilts for my book
and I just had to include a scrappy quilt
with red gingham sashing.
After all...that just says Farm Girl!
I knew that my
Feed and Seed block would
be the perfect choice
and look great against my
favorite red solid for the background.
The red gingham sashing is from
one of my older fabric collections
called Polka Dot Stitches:)
I used a good mix of
scrappy happy prints and colors...
And made 9 blocks
for this quilt!
If you are wondering which setting I used…
turn to the Table of Contents on page 3 in my book.
In the section titled
"Mix and Match Setting Quilts"…
you will see listed the different settings
that you can use to make your own unique quilts
by putting in whichever of my
45 farm girl blocks your heart desires:)
"You are the BOSS
of your own QUILT!"
I used the Square Dance Setting
on page 118 for this one:)
This quilt looks great in my kitchen!
Very Farm Girl Vintage:)
Next up is my block called
"Fresh Pears"
I LOVE pears!
We have a pear tree in our cottage garden
and I always look forward to
the end of summer when they are in season.
Our tree gives us plenty of
pears to eat fresh
and to bottle as well:)
I made a big stack of 12" blocks
because I am making a few pear projects:)
I made 16 total because I need 12 to make the
County Fair Quilt Setting on page 112...
And I'm using the remaining 4 to make
a pillow for the bench in my kitchen:)
I haven't decided how I'm setting the
blocks for the pillow yet
but I'm sure that when I finish it
I will be posting lots of pics on my
Thank you so much for
