Hi MaryKatherine and a big welcome to you..
So here is my story
A realllly long time ago I joined a wonderful group of ladies to make the Farmers Wife Sampler quilt, a dozen or more of us finished and formed such firm friendships that we decided to make the Farmers Wife Pony Club quilt, we added a few newbies, lost a few participants, but they quickly turned into our cheer squad.
The original FWS group is still together, chatting most days.
Fast forward to the FFC challenge and QuiltE starting her DJ, I resisted and said I was not going to make DJ never never never... I now have 39 blocks made and I blame it all on QuiltE, she is so persuasive
Love your blocks, I am working with a pink and brown colour palette.
