This block went together so nicely. I used the templates provided on the CD for the triangles, and cut the squares using my quilting ruler and rotary cutter. That's my usual way of doing these blocks, unless the squares will be funny sizes like 1.7 inches or something - then I use the templates for the lot.
I was very organised last night and printed off three pages of templates. I find that if I don't have the right template printed it will put me off sewing these Farmer's Wife blocks. When I want to sew I just can't be bothered with turning the computer on, finding the right template, printing, etc... Now, I will have no excuse not to dive right in to the cutting!
Bye for now x

Loving this one too Hope! At one each day, you'll be finished in no time ;)
Great block. Love that Eiffel Tower fabric in the center.
Great block, love the centre!
What size are the blocks in the farmer's wife Quilt? I do not have the book but am considering trying to make one as I do like the blocks I see. But it is not clear what sizes the squares or blocks are. Also does the pattern give you dimension for more that one size?
Your colors and fabrics inspire me to try!
