I saw a few of these blocks scattered here and there on blogs, became intrigued, and purchased the book:
Normally I wouldn't give a traditional book such as this a second glance, but the blocks I saw made with modern fabrics and bright colors completely changed my mind! I joined the Farmer's Wife Quilt Along Flickr group and got to work.
I decided to use this as a scrap-buster, doing monochromatic blocks in various colors and including a black/white print in each to unify it. So far, I'm very happy with the blocks I've completed.
Block 1 - Attic Windows
Block 2 - Autumn Tints
Block 3 - Basket
Block 4 - Basket Weave
Block 5 - Bat Wing
Block 6 - Big Dipper
And here they all are together...
A very addicting project! Anyone else want to play?
