This is Wrench #2:









If anyone is considering doing Farmer's Wife and wants an easy way to make them, give Sue at Hearts to Holly a call... or email her. She still has packets for making all the blocks. You can get them through the mail... you'll get the instructions for about 5 blocks a month... It's about $10 per month plus shipping cost. This program has paper piecing, pieced applique, regular piecing... well, it has it all... the creator of the program has you making each block in the easiest way. We're really having fun with these. And if you live in the Traverse City/Charlevoix area, give the shop a call and join our class.

Deb, I love the idea of using 1930s fabric for the Farmer's wife quilt. Hopefully I will get around to making mine. The blocks are lovely.

I love the 30's prints! They are so cheerful!
I am part of the Yahoo group and am going to post a link to a twin size Farmer's Wife quilt that started my interest in doing the quilt.
I loved looking at all of your blocks. I like the idea of making two twin-sized quilts - each in different styles of fabric. I'm making my Farmer's Wife in scraps to go along with my grandmother's 1916 diary.

Love your 30's blocks!
Love the 30s! I have plenty on hand, too. Originally, I planned one mod fabrics and another in Kaffes but am getting bored....mixing in some 30s and breaking them in half might be just what I need.
Thanks for the idea!!

Love your blocks Deb, will be a wonderful quilt.
I have the book & want to do the blocks in Civil war fabric, just need to find the time.
