Welcome Farmers!!
YeeHaw!!
It's week three of the
Are you ready to sew more
Farm Girl Blocks?
Grab your book...
and your Farm Girl Vintage Fabric...
And let's add two more blocks to the quilt:)
The first Farm Girl Block
for this week is
BUSY BEEHIVE
on page 25 of the book.
And our second
Farm Girl Block is
CHEERFUL TULIPS
on page 28 of the book
Both of these blocks are in the
Beekeeper's Garden Quilt
This quilt is the exact same setting
as the sampler quilt
that is on the cover...
The setting and border pattern
is exactly the same
and you can find it on
page 140 of the book.
This is also the same setting for
October Skies Quilt
that I showed you in week one.
On page 136 it tells you what
blocks that I used for my
Beekeeper's Garden Quilt
It's in the paragraph next to
the picture of my quilt.
Just like in the sampler quilt you need
20 - 12" Blocks and 30 - 6" Blocks
All of my 12" blocks are the Busy Beehive
and then the 6" blocks are
flowers and a few bees buzzing around!
I made this cute little
6" Cheerful Tulips Block
for a mini quilt.
So fun!!
Remember that you can decide which
blocks that you want to make
12" or 6" in your own quilt...
but if you want to make your quilt
just like mine don't forget to
download the handy dandy guide that I told you about in week one.
to download if you haven't yet.
I thought it would be fun to
share a photo from the sew along
from my first
Farm Girl Vintage Book
almost 5 years ago!
I made an apron using my
One Yard Apron pattern and then
did a tutorial on how to make
pockets from any 6" Farm Girl Blocks.
These blocks are of course
in the first book and are
CANNING SEASON and BAKING DAY
I'm thinking that
BUSY BEEHIVE and CHEERFUL TULIPS
would be a great combo for
apron pockets too!
to go to that original
Farm Girl Friday's post for the tutorial.
I'll meet you right back here
next week for more
