The Farmer's Wife Sampler Quilt (20's) Block 106 Wild Rose and Square

Is this my first outdoor shoot for 2020? I think so. This is the Farmer's Wife Sampler Quilt (20's) Block 106 Wild Rose and Square. Very pretty.
The countdown is close as there are only 5 more to go and then I will give you all a BIG REVEAL of the blocks I have done so far. But then what? The final layout has not been worked out and I don't have another set of blocks waiting int he wings (but I do have plenty of books with some in!).

The Farmer's Wife Sampler Quilt (20's) Block 80 Single Wedding Star

Today I am presenting the Farmer's Wife Sampler Quilt (20's) Block 80 Single Wedding Star. The current situation is allowing these to progress at an alarming rate - alarming because I don't know if I have enough to keep me quiet for the next week. I am SO near the end.
Personally I am feeling overwhelmed by the number of Quilt-Alongs and projects that seem to be currently thrown at me from all directions. As if I don't have enough projects of my own to tackle! At the moment I am taking the situation to take breath and take the opportunity to live a less frantic life. I have plenty of projects waiting in the wings for when the moment takes me.

The Farmer's Wife Sampler Quilt (20's) Block 82 Spider Legs

There are 44 pieces in this 4.5" Farmer's Wife Sampler Quilt (20's) Block 82 Spider Legs. There is always a little panic when I see such small pieces, but once they are sewn to the next one, it is already a bigger piece, so the worry soon goes.
Current circumstances have meant that I have pulled out my Farmer's Wife bag to do at home. Usually I save it for trips or waiting rooms, but that won't be happening for a while ....

The Farmer's Wife Sampler Quilt (20's) Block 76 Sawtooth

It has been a while since I finished a Farmer's Wife quilt block, so I have started to put a bit of effort in as there are so few left to do.
This is the Farmer's Wife Sampler Quilt (20's) Block 76 Sawtooth. Lots of little triangles on the edge which needed a bit of persuasion to lie flat, but it looks OK in the picture.
Meanwhile, my other quilts, including my Nearly Insane and Dear Jane sampler quilts are touring the UK with Grosvenor Shows. They will be in Duxford next weekend.
