FWQA - 1st 9 blocks

I joined the Farmer's Wife Quilt-a-Long a little while ago but had to wait for my book to arrive and then start on my templates (over 100 of them) and yesterday I finally started cutting and piecing the blocks. Here are the first 9 of the 111 blocks.

I didn't want the blocks to be too busy so I decided to use my shot cotton stash. I love how the fabrics allow the block design to shine. I'm going with a rainbow theme and will probably use white sashing between the blocks.

Block #31 - Evening Star

Block #29 - Economy

Block #4 - Basketweave

Block #9 - Box

Block #2 - Autumn Tints

Block #16 - Calico Puzzle

Block #6 - Big Dipper

Block #41 - Friendship Star

Only 102 more to go :)

Oh and this is what happens when you don't double check you've got the right template .....

I made the right one first with the incorrect template (9 inches) oops! Then I had to remake it at the correct 6.5 inches. Lesson learnt, check the template number twice!!!
