Continuing with...Corn and Tomatoes, Country Crossroads, and Crops
I'm having such a great fun sewing from my Farm Girl Vintage book by Lori Holt. What a great sew along! I'm caught up with the blocks but haven't kept up with corresponding blog posts. Today I'll share 3 more cute blocks, starting with Corn and Tomatoes. This block was near and dear to my heart, because corn and tomatoes are a great source of color inspiration!
{These fresh ingredients make a fabulous corn salad!}
I found the Corn and Tomatoes block to be a real treat to stitch. My "Fresh Air" American Jane fabrics give me a few sweet reds to start with. I tossed in a butter yellow print, too, from Bake Sale by Lori Holt.
This block had fewer pieces than most, so pretty soon, my block was finished.
I'm such a fan of pinwheels, and I love the way the points meet in the middle.
I love using my "design boards" that I made following
this tutorial.
Next up was another simple block: Country Crossroads. I went with blue and pink prints this time. I like making each block a little different, for my vintage quilt. Polka dots fit right in!
Snowball blocks and sashing make this easy!
Next up we have the clever "Crops" block. I really like the way the leaves are composed of two fabrics in the same color.
The finished block is cute on its own, but I plan to pop a flower block onto the stem someday.
Come back often to watch my Farm Girl Vintage blocks accumulating!
