Farm Girl Vintage 2 Quilt Along - Farm Girl Friday's - Week Twenty!!


Hello and welcome to the 




Grab your book


And your Farm Girl Vintage Fabric...


And let's make some Farm Girl Blocks!


Our first Farm Girl Block
 for this week is 
SISTERS QUILT 
on page 121 of the book.


I love this block and all of it's scrappiness.
I know I say this about every block
 LOL but I would love to make
 an entire quilt with this block 
using my scrappy stash:)


I did make one in 6" size 
to add to my 6" Farm Girl Block Sampler...
and I also made a 6" Small Town Block 
to add as well...
 it's our other block for this week:)


I now have nine blocks sewn 
and three more to go.


I am really loving the way 
that they all look together:)


SMALL TOWN 
is on page 123 of the book.


I named this block Small Town because
 I am a small town girl
 through and through!
My parents and aunts and uncles
 still live in the small town 
where I grew up and several of
 my brothers and sisters...
nieces and nephews 
have homes there as well.
And I just live in the next town over...
5 miles away:)


I love any and every house blocks!


Here are the 3" unit and a 
6" block hanging together.

Remember that the 3" units 
are what the doll quilts are made from...
I explained more about that
 in last weeks post.




These tiny little 3" units are so cute!


I put the Small Town Doll Quilt
 on the bed at far left.
I painted the bed with my 
Farm Girl Paint in the color 
Tea Kettle


I bordered it in the red gingham
 from my Farm Girl Vintage fabric collection.


It's the medium doll quilt and the
 pattern is on page 189 of the book.


I styled this photo with 
a vintage bud vase holding roses
 made with vintage book pages...


And a few of my very favorite vintage books:)


Thanks for joining me on the farm today!
I'll see you back here next week:)
