Steppin' out with the Farmer

I pulled my book out today and saw that it's been 2 months since I made any of the Farmers blocks - I think I'd had enough of them and as the next few are either foundation pieced or involve a huge number of pieces, it seemed like a really good idea to put them in the shelf for a holiday.  Anyway, I did manage to complete 3 - Blocks 85 - 87.....

Square dance
Squash blossom
Star gardener - this one finished 1/4" bigger than expected!
I also noted that's it's been almost a year since I started this quilt - and given the disparate sizes of the blocks it'll likely be a few more years before I can muster the enthusiasm to put it together : \

24 to go..........................

  8. Love them! My favourite is star gardener, even if it misbehaved in size.
    I'm sure you'll find a way to sew em all together so they look great. But if it takes you a while to sort that out and sew it together, that's ok, it gives me time to catch up ;)
