I just finished 22 yesterday. It took me all day. I can't imagine how some can get these done in a couple of hours. How do you do it???

I had to press the major seams open to get them to lay flat.

Yes #22 took me forever to do too. I ended up drafting it in Quilt Assistant and paper piecing it. It still took 12 pieces.

Now is the time for 21 Contrary wife and 22 Corn and beans...I had problems with putting a contrary wife in my quilt 'cause being Irish heritage I refuse admit to being contrary. So pardons to the author, I changed it to "Contrary husband"; that he is...has been for almost 45 years and still going strong. Sorry, it is sideways "wild thymes" is right on and corn & beans is missing for now; so I will add it later.

it is so much fun to watch these get posted and see how the same block looks so different when using different fabrics.

I'm having a lot of fun with these- I'm up to 56 now, getting about 6-7 done a day. Then my back starts to hurt and I have to stop!

Quilting Nonnie 10-16-2010 03:19 PM

Wow! 6-7 blocks a day--I don't know whether I'm jealous or blown away. Your blocks look great!!

Va Quilter 10-16-2010 03:36 PM

All the threads with blocks 1-22 are in the Farmer's Wife Quilt Forum...two each week are posted in seperate threads...just peruse the forum and you'll find them...

You must buy the book mentioned in the original thread...http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-52690-1.htm

Thank you ladies for the nice compliments on my blocks!

rwquilts 10-16-2010 04:21 PM

Cyndi, your blocks are so pretty!

Cyndi H 10-16-2010 05:05 PM

Thanks! Everyone's are lovely - I'm loving the different color schemes, seeing some ideas that are new to me for combinations.

Scrapped my original Corn & Beans and went with the fave yellow, green and white. Also did next week's and a 4H block to boot. Good times.

Cyndi H 10-16-2010 05:31 PM

pookie ookie (love that name) - I'm drawn to the colors in the Contrary Wife - the turquoise with the red is really neat!

pookie ookie 10-16-2010 06:13 PM

Thank you. That's one of my fave color combos in a two color or three color (with white) quilt. Reminds me of my grandmother's kitchen.

My #21 & #22 I've had them done for awhile, but I am just finishing up packing for new house. Corn and Beans was a pain.............Working on a 3rd one of that. The 1st one PP,was 1/8th to small and the 2nd one rotary cut and is wonky lookin'. So I am prayin for 3rd one being a charm.
