I made three more blocks for my Farmer's Wife quilt.
I'm glad to say that I'm starting to have a much clearer vision for this quilt.
First, instead of making 111 blocks I'm going to make "only" 83. My daughter has claimed this quilt from the very beginning and she needs it to be twin sized, thus less blocks are needed. It gives me luxury to skip some of the blocks if I don't like them, or maybe they are just too difficult and fussy to make. Not bad.
I made a small change to my fabric choice, too. I thought I would use plain white fabric in each block. Then I realized that some blocks use only 2 colors and that would mean too much white. So I decided to go with fabric that's mostly white, with some small pattern instead of solid white in some of the blocks.
Here are my three newest blocks in more details:
block# 5 Bat Wing
block #6 Big Dipper
and block #12 Broken Sugar Bowl
Have a wonderful summer day.
