English Paper Piecing Progress

Earlier this year I shared my new interest in English Paper Piecing.  Well, I'm obsessed now!  I'm plotting my next move into working on a Passacaglia quilt.  But until then, here is more of I started.

Farmer's Wife - Week 21

For week 21 of our Farmer's Wife Quilt-along, we go back to using Foundation Paper Piecing with some alternatives depending on your color choices.

• Block 33 - Farmer's Puzzle
• Block 65 - Peaceful Hours
• Block 110 - Wood Lily

Farmer's Wife - Week 19 - Our Blocks

Week 19 we introduced a new pieced unit called "Dog-eared triangle" that was used in each of these blocks.  We also used a variety of other familiar piecing methods.

Bumble Bee Quilt for Baby Gigi

When I learned that a friend was expecting a baby, I hoped I'd be able to make a baby quilt as a gift.  She shared that the theme of the baby room would be Bumble Bees and gave me some color swatches, so I began planning.

Farmer's Wife - Week 20

For week 20 of our Farmer's Wife Quilt-along, we have three blocks that use a variety of piecing techniques we've been using.

• Block 22 - Corn & Beans
• Block 80 - Single Wedding Star
• Block 98 - Waterwheel

Farmer's Wife - Week 18 - Our Blocks

Week 18 of our Farmer's Wife Quilt-along included blocks that used mostly foundation paper piecing.  With this posting, we are completely caught up, and I've learned that I'm now behind on week 19.  I need to get in gear!

Farmer's Wife - Week 19

Week 19 of the Farmer's Wife Quilt-along introduces three more blocks that have some interesting new techniques.  We'll be making:

• Block 28 - Duck & Ducklings
• Block 40 - Friendship Block
• Block 64 - Peace & Plenty
