As impatient as I felt, this week came pretty quickly. Here are my first three blocks.
I’ll be adding a couple extra blocks per week (in the future) so I have enough for the King size. I’ll get the extra block patterns from the first Farmer’s Wife book because I don’t want any duplicates.
The Bonnie is my favorite of the three. At least for now.
I’ll be in Florida next week so I’m a little nervous about falling behind. It’s early in the Sew Along so I’m still really excited – hopefully that keeps me in gear!
Here are the fabrics used in the first three blocks. This post talks about the two Kona solid collections I’m using. And I finally decided on the background color – Moda Bella Solids in Porcelain. It’s a nice off white that isn’t too warm.
This is a year long sew along so there’s still plenty of time to join. The book may be on back-order (demand was pretty crazy for a bit) but you can catch up! Check out Gnome Angel for details.
