So this week I thought I would post a few finished Farmer's Wife quilts to keep you inspired! We can do this! I love that not everyone uses the exact pattern. There are different placements, border treatments and sizes.
I think my favorite finished so far is by Krystyne of Pretty By Hand. It's actually similar to the colors in my quilt and I plan on using white sashing and red polka dot sashing squares. Isn't it gorgeous!? If you haven't visited her blog, GO, it's lovely and so inspiring.
This version is recently finished by Amanda from Hey, Porkchop! She is one of the originators of the Farmer's Wife Quilt Along that got me started in this whole pursuit! I love how she made it more modern and interspersed grey blocks in between. Beautiful.
I love the colors in this finish by City House Quilts. She bordered her blocks with white triangles. It gives it such a clean look. And some of the blocks on are point and some aren't which makes the quilt more interesting, just wonderful.
Lori from Bee in my Bonnet finished her quilt recently. This is another favorite of mine. And I am totally planning on making one of Lori's barns as my quilt label on the back, so cute!
Now it's your chance to share what you've been up to! Have Farmer's Wife blocks to share? Here are the rules:
- Use the linky tool and link your blog posts or flickr pictures of Farmer's Wife blocks.
- You must LINK back to this post within your post. You can also grab a Farmer's Wife Friday button (on the right side bar).
- Have fun reading all the posts! Don't forget, everyone loves a nice comment!
I haven't started mine yet but these are great inspirations, I didn't realize the importance of choosing a fabric and sticking with it for so many blocks.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the inspiration. I haven't done any for two weeks now because of spring break and birthday parties. One more birthday party today and them I'm finished for 6 months. Tip: don't have children with birthdays so close to eachother, I've been going crazy. If I can I will get these done today though!
ReplyDeleteHow terrible am I? I didn't get any Farmer's wife blocks sewn this week. :( I made curtains for my sister's store instead. Oh well, maybe next week. :)
ReplyDeleteI love looking at pictures of the completed quilts - they're so inspiring to keep going on mine. Thanks for sharing! :)
I love how each one of them is unique. Thanks for posting the inspiration!

I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
ReplyDeleteliver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
