You can find all the info for this sew along on the

Sampler Spree QAL ~ Main Page

I am sewing along by numerical order in the book.

These are all 6.5" unfinished blocks.

In the layout in the book, the small blocks are sewn together

 into larger blocks of four. 

I think I am going to wait to sew mine together.

I may decide to sew them together in order, also.

These are fun blocks to make.

R&R Time ~ Farm Girl Vintage


R&R Time

I need to take a few short breaks here and there from the pattern and quilt I am working on
and the overtime burnout that my quilty muse has been feeling lately.

Sew I have decided to seek my inner vintage farm girl and sew a few blocks.

It is not Friday and it is Week 7

... so I am (not very fashionably) late to this party ...


Farm Girl Friday Sew Along

 but I finally got a

Bee In My Bonnet

and had to buy the  Farm Girl Vintage book and join this fun.


My fabrics of choice are some that have been in stash for some time. 

"Rise N Shine" by Glenna Hailey,


is my fabrics of choice for starting this project.

Colors are red/green/yellow/black and creamy white.

I am adding some other fabrics from my repros stash as needed ...

and maybe some gingham ... hmmmmm.


I think that I want to add blue to my quilt ... ???

Do y'all think that either of these blue 30's print from

The Feedsack Lady

works with the other fabrics?



Blue #1 ... from Darlene Zimmerman's "Garden Party"

or



Blue # 2 ... from Darlene Zimmerman's Mama's Feedsacks

or

Option # 3 ... I keep digging for a better blue

or

Option #4 ... no blue in this quilt


Do y'all think that this blue 30's print from

The Feedsack Lady
