What should I do with this? + Full Trunk show list

*** Farm Girl Vintage book Review ***

This is SUCH a great book by my friend Lori Holt!  The book includes so much more than the blocks for the quilt on the cover.

I decided to make this pieced block. 

Some features of the book:

• Each block comes with 2 sizes
• Sampler layout
• Additional sampler layouts
• Other projects.. see blow

At the End is the list of all the designers for the FB live Trunk Shows!

*** Farm Girl Vintage book Inside ***

This is one I really want to try!  

The key is getting the right fabrics to give that shading. She also has it in 10 different sizes. 

Anyone want to make a gingham quilt with me? seems perfect for summer!

This is another favorite, barn quilts!

They are a great size for a baby quilt.

*** Fabric I used***

I LOVE the fabric I used for my block! It would make a cute Oh My Stars!

*** What should I do with this block? ***

That is my big decision.  I'm thinking of either:

• A Pillow
• Make a few more for a table runner for my coffee table

Leave me a comment!
