The Farmer's Wife had a special friend over this week. She brought along some Farmer's Wife Blocks...all the ones with names relating to friendship and country life. This top block is called Friendship....It's a block that Cindy and I both just love!
Just like my grand daughters, the blocks formed a circle, holding hands, for a little 'ring-a-round-a-rosie'!
Cindy and I got a lot of enjoyment out of admiring each other's blocks and marveling that we have not given up on this project...considering that we both have issues with procrastination. We've decided that we might be onto something with this blogging accountability thing and are asking ourselves how else it could be applied.
With only 20 more to go, my blocks are getting geared up to be a "finished project in 2012". We both have put our names on the waiting list of an awesome quilter to make sure that our year of efforts don't end up in our UFO closet!
That would just be a crying shame!
Carla-way to go with your Farmer's Wife blocks! They look so fabulous and I'm glad to see that you've got your plans in place to get the quilt finished. Kudos!
ReplyDeleteAnd they are lovely, by the way! :)
Need to finish a few other quilts then can start on my Farmer's Wife quilt. Way to go.
ReplyDeleteEverything is more fun with friends! Your blocks look so happy together - it will be great to see how they both turn out. See you in a few days!
ReplyDeleteThey do play happily together don't they! And your quilts will be a fabulous finish for 2012!

Look how pretty they are together--they had such a grand time meeting each other. Just like you and me!
ReplyDeleteWow! It's amazing how two blocks can be the same but so different just by changing the fabrics!
