Farm Girl Friday - Week Seven!

It's Farm Girl Friday. YeeHaw! Today I am out of town on my Farm Girl Vintage Retreat/Workshop sewing all kinds of fun farm girl things but on Tuesday before I left… I prepared this post just for you!

Grab your book and turn to page 24…

Where you will find the instructions for my Egg Basket Block
I love basket blocks and I especially love the triangle trim on this one.
I have made so many of these baskets with different fabrics… and I love them all! I think just a whole quilt of these scrappy baskets would be so fun to display in the spring:)

Here's a quilty idea close up... I love it!

I originally designed this basket way back during my Quilty Barn Along

And it ended up in this gray gingham barn. CLICK HERE to view that tutorial and see my step by step photos:)

The block ended up in my Silo Barn Quilt on page 92 of my book.

Our next block for this week is "Crops" Found on page 23 I love this block in different colors…

But when I designed it for the book I also knew it would look great in scrappy greens...

And fit perfectly on the bottom of my Sunny Sunflower Farm Girl Block on page 66!!!
We won't be doing that block for a while in our sew along but I just had to show you what I did!

I used all of these fabrics to make a new (and secret) project for my Farm Girl Vintage retreat that we are all working on today. I will be sharing that project here with all of you next month…:)

I just love how these two blocks go together… #FarmGirlFlowerBlock An entire quilt of these would be super adorable too! I have so many ideas and never enough time to sew them all:)
