Design Wall Monday July 30


I have been working on my Forester`s wife (Farmer`s wife is what many of you know them as) Blocks this past week and it was time to see what they look like together. I was doing a sew-a-long but I am so far behind and they are taking a break for July. I also have had fun playing with my own block designs. I did the Blue blocks this Friday and Saturday for my Rainbow Scrap Challenge. These blocks are only 6 inches so I will need so many more before I am done.


Last week I showed you my Spider Web quilt on the design wall. Well I did good and got the first 4 rows (out of 9) all sewn together. Here in the box below, are the next 5 rows. I guess they will be next up on the design wall. I would like this quilt for our new king size bed we got this past month.

  4. looks wonderful! I lost steam on mine about halfway through and it is in the UFO bin....I will try again in the fall. I may just make it smaller with half the blocks. :)

  5. Ooh, I love the colors you picked for the spider web quilt. Those are my colors too - jewel tones.! Your Farmer's wife blocks are really pretty too. I like blue and white quilts. So clean and crisp. Yours is wonderful.
