Farm Girl Friday - Week 19 - New Farm Girl Vintage Flowers Pattern!!!

Good Morning Farm lovers!

We are moving right along with 

our Farm Girl Fridays 

and we are already into week 19!

So grab your book and let's get started

 on the blocks for this week:)

 To get a copy of your own...

Turn to page 62 and

 let's talk about my

Spring Star Block

It's an easy block to construct and 

I like that it has 

three color combos to play with:)

A perfect choice for scrappy happiness.

I used my 

"County Fair" 

Mix and Match Setting

 on page 112 to make a 

fun little quilt

 using twelve 6" Spring Stars:)

Even though these two quilts

 are the exact same setting...

they look completely different because

I used the same background fabric

 throughout the entire Spring Star quilt

 instead of using scrappy fabrics 

for the borders like in the Milking Day quilt.

I LOVE how this cute little quilt turned out

and I think that the red gingham binding 

adds the perfect Farm Girl Vintage touch!

I love the addition of the 

Spring Star

 in the sampler quilt 

on the cover of the book...

you can never have too many

 star blocks in a sampler!

Speaking of star blocks...

let's move on to our next block

Simple Star Block

on page 61 of the book.

I have talked about this block already

 in a few of my previous posts

but this week is finally 

it's turn to shine even more!

I used my 

"Picnic" 

Mix and Match setting

to make this summer quilt.

I dug into my scrappy stash of 

blues, aquas, reds, 

pinks and whites for this one:)

I love the Picnic mix and match setting

 because it uses both the 

12" and 6" block sizes...

and looks great with other quilts!

A farm girl can never have

 too many quilts

so let's talk about one more

 to add to the pile!

Remember when I did this

 farm girl block mash up

 using my Crops block and my

Sunny Sunflower block?

Well...for my 

Farm Girl Vintage 

Retreats/Workshops

I always design a few

 Farm Girl Vintage companion blocks 

for my students to play with.

 I designed a few more flowers 

to go on the top of my crops block.

Poppies and Tulips!

I think they look great 

with the Sunny Sunflowers 

and makes for a super cute 

Farm Girl Vintage Flower bouquet:)

I designed 3 different 

variations of my "Poppy" block...

and 3 different variations of

 my Tulips block.

Both in 6" and 12" sizes of course:)

These are some of the 12" sizes

and I made them into a runner using the 

 Harvest Table runner setting on page 124.

Then I made even more

 Farm Girl Vintage Flowers

( 12" blocks )

because they are so addicting!

Then I made 4 of Farm Girl Vintage Flowers

 in the 6"size blocks for a fun pillow:)

(click here to get seam guide)

I'm not kidding when I said these are addicting to make.

I just can't stop sewing them!

I love flower blocks so much

and in my opinion...

there should be 

lots of flowers on my farm:)

And as usual...

these blocks are an 

amazing way to use your 

scrappy stash 

because the color combos

 in the Farm Girl Vintage Flowers are endless.

By request...

(a BIG thank you)
