Pipe sounds pretty heavy to move around, I wonder it pvc pipe would hold it up? and could get my farmer husband to work on that? thanks for the reply My son posted the avatar, so maybe when he comes to the farm in a couple weeks, will ask him to post it for me.

I was on her site before and went back now to check again ... all I could find is a small picture ... small enough that I can't really see each block. Maybe she doesn't want to show it off much, to prevent people from looking at it and making it without her pattern?

Here is a link I found with LOTS of pics of the Farmers Wife Quilt on it:

Also, here's a good link on Connecting Threads, that also has some pattern block instructions for it.

It is a beautiful quilt & would be a REAL CHALLENGE.
