Hope you feel better soon. That is going to be a beautiful quilt. I'm not familiar with Farmer's Wife but I like it.

Very very nice! I love subtlety and tone on tone is one of my favorite things. I'm looking forward to seeing this one completed!

Very pretty blocks. Keep ue posted on your progress.
I like your idea of white blocks. Is there a story behind using all white?

It's a really neat idea, but I'm not sure I could do something like that. Just me. I like bright quilts!!

This is going to be one very pretty quilt. You have me wanting to make a quilt totally out of white now. I hope your back feels better soon so you can finish this beauty. Keep us posted!
