Happy Friday! Hope your week was a good one : )
It is time to share blocks from the Farmer's Wife 1930's Quilt Along.
I decided to sew along since I love making these blocks so much!
This week Kerry shared her Anne and April blocks. You can find her post [HERE]
Here are my versions:
April is a straightforward block - very easy to sew.
To make it a bit easier to get the colored pieces in the right place, I color coded the pattern with colored pencils. There are lots of little pieces and this made things much easier.
I think this is my favorite so far - the fabrics work so well together.
I used Pink Penguins Lighthearted fabric for the center apple and blue/green sections.
The background dot is Moda Basics. I love the gingham but can't remember where it is from.
Anne is another straight forward block to sew.
I used an older Connecting Threads print for the floral from the "Hope Chest" line, the yellow/white print is Glamping from Moda. The dot background is another perfect dot in pink from Moda Basics.
I think this one would be such a fun quilt as a single block repeated for the entire quilt.
Happy Sewing!
