FWS= Farmer's Wife Sampler.

The blocks are from a book The Farmers Wife Sampler Quilt - Letters from 1920's farm wives and the 111 blocks they inspired.

There is/was a block of the month here on the board. There is also one for the Farmers Wife Pony Club Sampler Quilt - Letters from the lucky pony winners of 1915 and the 90 blocks that tell their stories.

I've just ordered the books. Even if I don't make any of the blocks, the books promise to be fascinating.

QuiltE, CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! Both projects are very deserving of the prizes they have been awarded so far and I will be watching closely in February because I am sure that you will be bringing home honours from the OAAS Convention.
