Yes, I pretty much followed the combinations of 12" and 6" laid out for the sampler quilt in the book. But I also subbed in a number of blocks from the first book, and made up a couple of my own as well, so that it related more closely to my own farm girl experience.

This is destined to be a couch quilt. Out, used, and loved on a daily basis!

I honestly don't know! I've been working on them, on and off, for many months. Taken a break here and there to work on other stuff or to buy fabric (because I couldn't resist the Lori Holt fabrics for this quilt. Her designs are so cute!) But I really started concentrating hard on it when the lockdowns began. It was a good, happy focus for me.
Thanks for all the kind words! This was probably the most fun quilt to make out of all that I've made!
