Darting Birds

One more Farmers Wife Sampler block complete, Darting Birds. This one was going very well, until it came to attaching the 'birds' to each other. I had trouble with one point in particular, and ended up calling  it done after several unpicking sessions, though I was not 100% thrilled with it.

Here is the block:


It is a bit wonky in places, but oddly ended up nice and square...

Having them all laid out like this makes me wonder about doing a couple of smaller quilts, rather than the queen size I was planning. Still plenty of time to decide. :)

Wow...they look fantastic all together! I feel your pain with Darting Birds, but I gave up in the end...well, for now, anyway :) It's hard to decide how big to go with FW...I'm sure whatever you decide will be awesome!
