Maybe I should just stick to the fusible applique.

Cute little pig I would love to have it in my quilt

Received Tam...Moo's blocks this morning.
They are very cute! Can't wait to see everyone else's.:)

Was just trying to make the little piggie smell pretty since they love to lay in the mud. This little piggie wiggie is going to the fair all dolled up for show.

Ms. Grace, posted a message to you in the wonky swap. Wanting to mail both together. let me know.

QM- cute little pig!

Still debating on pigs to finish all six like them, but I have finished my barns. When i get all four sets finished, will post photo. I am a week behind on things so finally getting some sewing done instead of longarm. Will be at that this weekend for customers, but going to finish my farm blocks tonight. I am going to try doubling my embroidery applique designs and make a tractor and tree or a tractor and ei ei o letters above. not sure. Maybe a farm truck and ei ei o. What think? I still have the cow in the back of my mind as well. Not sure if cow or a bull.

Can't wait to see the picture of your blocks.:thumbup:

But what should I try" I am going to try doubling my embroidery applique designs and make a tractor and tree or a tractor and ei ei o letters above. not sure. Maybe a farm truck and ei ei o. What think?

QM,
I had said that would be fine with me.:thumbup:

I just came across this love the idea. Lets see I have so much on my plate but these all are to darn cute? Is there still room or to late ?

I think after more thinking I just have too much on the plate by the due date but will definately hangout and see all the wonderful blocksthat all of you make :)

Now how cute are these?

I can't resist and send a pm if I can still join.

Oh I no Ms. Grace, no worries girl. I was describing why I chose the floral fabric. Nothing like dressing up those little piggies. Seeing how they can ride in cars screaming wheeeeeee all the way home. LOL.

I am finishing up the last of my swap blocks. If I finish all the piggies, then I will be four sets otherwise I do have three finished. Will post photos tommorrow before I mail to you. I know you gave me your mailing address so I have to look up my wonderful PMs to find it again.

As promised, here are the blocks I am sending in, four sets of 6 each.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]353923[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]353924[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]353925[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]353926[/ATTACH] I used Buggy Barn fabrics out of my plaids and the scrap bags you can buy there. These are an OESD embroidery design pack.

they are great!

They look even cuter in person. The tractors are all of a green and yellow plaid, thought of John Deere when made them. Yep, had to dress the pig up with pink painted toe nails. I doubled up on designs with the tree and tractor and the cow and eieio! letters. It came to me after I did the barns and thought I needed to send in larger squares. I am going to make the others for my own quilt and do the small 3.5" blocks so I can add them to the top of a 9.5 so can match a 12.5 or so the story goes. I am making a dog, another tree, a horse, a farm truck, and a chicken which are the rest of the designs in the pack for myself. Could not do them all for the swap, oh darn. I did notice that the pack does not have a cat in the mix. Hope someone is making a cat, every farm needs a good mouser, oh and there is another thing, a mouse, every farm has a nest of mice in it. Someone doing that? I am going to have to find one in my patterns to make that for my quilt if no one is making it.

QM I am looking for a cat for my last design. Sofar I have piggies, a barn, a snow man and now maybe a cat.

Since I am loosing it here, let me pass on a joke for you to keep the theme going.

Why did the farm feed his cow money?


He wanted rich milk.:D:D:D

How do mules open locked barns?

With don-keys. :D:D

I know, laffy taffy time again.

OK I was worried you were spending too much time in that hot garage running that long arm but this confirmed it.
Hehehehehe :D :D

How are everyones blocks coming along. I hope to post pictures soon. Anyone else ready to show their blocks?

I can't wait to see everyones blocks:)

Okay fellow quilters, here are my blocks for the farm swap......however, I did label my blocks "Funky Farm Swap" instead "Fun on the Farm Swap"...OH WELL......the last block is titled "farm friendliness" so it fits the theme......

whoops...the sheep blocks are 9 1/2 square and the other two are 12 1/2 square....wish the colors were more accurate...guess you'll be surprised when you see them first hand.....LOL

Lovely! I didn't realize we are going country checks etc. I like it but now I am worried if mine will fit in. I plan to get them squared up within the next couple of days and post pictures.

Of course they will fit in Anna, everything fits in. That is why it is "fun". Looking forward to seeing them.

How does a farmer mend his plants?


With a cabbage patch.:D:D:D:D
