Farmer's Wife - Week 11 - Our Blocks

Our blocks for week 11 of the Farmer's Wife Quilt-along present very nicely!

Beth enjoyed making Block 9, Box, because she got to use a larger-scale print that is often too fussy for the more complicated blocks.

I was pleased to receive Beth's finished Block 12, Broken Sugar Bowl, and see how differently we chose our color placements.

Our Block 104, Wild Geese, blocks also show how color and value choices can really change the way a block is interpreted.  Beth's block have more of a star look to it, while mine is more chevron-looking.
