Farm Girl Friday - Week Seven!

It's Farm Girl Friday.

YeeHaw!

Today I am out of town

 on my Farm Girl Vintage

Retreat/Workshop

sewing all kinds of 

fun farm girl things 

but on Tuesday before I left…

I prepared this post  

just for you! 

Grab your book and turn to page 24…

Where you will find the instructions for my

 Egg Basket Block

I love basket blocks and I especially love

 the triangle trim on this one.

I have made so many of 

these baskets with different fabrics…

and I love them all!

I think just a whole quilt 

of these scrappy baskets 

would be so fun

to display in the spring:)

Here's a quilty idea

close up...

I love it!

I originally designed this basket way back

during my Quilty Barn Along

And it ended up in this gray gingham barn.

to view that tutorial

and see my step by step photos:)

The block ended up in my 

Silo Barn Quilt

on page 92 of my book.

Our next block for this week is 

"Crops"

Found on page 23

I love this block in different colors…

But when I designed it for the book

I also knew it would 

look great in scrappy greens...

And fit perfectly on the bottom of my

Sunny Sunflower 

Farm Girl Block

on page 66!!!

We won't be doing that block

 for a while

in our sew along but

 I just had to show you what I did!

I used all of these fabrics

 to make a new (and secret) project for 

my Farm Girl Vintage retreat that 

we are all working on today.

I will be sharing that 

project here with 

all of you next month…:) 

I just love how these 

two blocks go together…

#FarmGirlFlowerBlock

An entire quilt of these would be super adorable too!

I have so many ideas and

 never enough time to sew them all:)
