This week for the Farmer's Wife Quilt-a-long I made blocks 11 and 12. Poor Farmer's wife, broken dishes, broken sugar bowls..
Block #11 is Broken Dishes
I think it was probably very sad for them when they broke a dish because it wasn't always easy to replace them. And this block was good for using up the small scraps of fabric.
#12 is Broken Sugar Bowl
I like this one. It was fun to sew. Plus I like the blue.
Little girl hands. When we moved into this house in 2003, I let my youngest daughter put her handprints on the wall behind the door. And sadly, I painted over them this week. She moved into a bigger bedroom at Christmas and I thought it was time that I fixed her old room up for guests. I painted it a creamy white called Malted Milk. I have been moving out some of the things that she didn't want to keep and am deciding what furniture to use in there.
My oldest daughter is here visiting so I don't know how much time I will get to work on projects. I don't get to see her very often so I try to spend as much time with her as possible.
Happy Crafting!!
