A BIG thanks to all the quilters that have already posted. You are my inspiration.
After I took this picture I noticed I put part of the border on backwards, I'm just not surprised at all. lol
Your trials didn't go unrewarded. Your block is just gorgeous. I think one of my favorites.

Lovely farmhouse. Still waiting for the return of my broken sewing machine. This is torture looking at all the lovely blocks!!

Well, I have finished mine at last. To say that PP is NOT my favorite method is a huge understatement, but I now feel that I can PP about anything. I just need alot of time and more paper. I had the hardest time with the walkway and getting the grass to be growing the right direction.

Love it! Your farmhouse is sitting in a field of wild flowers. I agree PP isn't my favourite either but maybe by the time we finish these BOM's (bet there will be more PP) we will love it. Then again - maybe not. LOL

Yep! Creeped me out. :shock:

But it's probably the type of thing I would buy if I saw it.
