Farmer's Wife - Week 7

Well, I'm behind on Week 6, but don't want to hold up anyone else!  So, here is the information for Week 7.  We'll be doing all foundation paper piecing this week and they are all different levels of difficulty.  The blocks for this week are:
  • Block 5, Bat Wing
  • Block 49, Honeycomb
  • Block 83, Spider Web


Block 5, Bat Wing


This block is the easiest, with three sections foundation pieced then assembled.  Find the template here and remember to print it at 100% scale to be sure you get the right size finished block.

Block 49, Honeycomb


This block isn't much harder, but has eight small sections foundation pieced, then assembled.  Find the template here.

Block 83, Spider Web


This block is more challenging.  Similar to Night & Day, this block has a spoke-based layout that causes all of the pieces to converge at the center.  While the individual sections aren't difficult, the assembly will be tedious.  Find the template here.

For all of the blocks, choose your colors and values to your liking, and look online for ideas that other people have shared.
