I would love to do a BOM, but I can't afford them. I did get the Farmer's Wife book and will do one with my own fabric.And to be totally honest, I have seen them at Hancock and JoAnn's and I don't particularly care for the fabric choices and when I do get to start on the Farmer's Wife, it will be all my own choices, which is just something I prefer anyhow and am able to use up my own fabric.
Right now I am helping a neighbor patch the underarm of his bathrobe and will do that all by hand and then applique a fussy-cutted piece on the center of the patch. I have been teasing him about it for a while now. It is a red background with white and a big black ant on it. I think it was used for a table cloth and/or napkins! Now they are perfect for I Spy quilts and just adding a bit of levity to something. Edie
