As the last time we met, I implied you about a new BOW...
I knew already last year that the same Yahoo -group, now named as Quilter's Book Club, with whom I sewed the Sylvia's Bridal Sampler blocks few years ago, starts a new BOW round of Farmer's Wife Sampler Quilt. Because I have FWS book, why should I wait another day or two to start to make FWS blocks.
We don't live here forever... or do we?
In 1922, The Farmer's Wife magazine posed this question to their readers: "If you had a daughter of marriageable age, would you, in light of your own experience, have her marry a farmer?" The magazine at that time had 750,000 subscribers, and received over 7,000 letters. The best answers to this question are included in this book, along with the traditional quilt blocks they inspired.

Nuo tarinat ja kirjeet antavat varmasti ihan erilaista näkökulmaa blokkeihin. Tykkään tuosta Cut Glass Dish-blokista. Kirjeet ja tarinat kertovat ehkä sen, mistä nimi on peräisin? Minä jätin viimevuotiset BOMit hetkeksi huilaustauolle, mutta Kotk-, anteeksi Jerseyn tyttöä pitäisi päästä tikkaamaan, vaikka en oikein vielä tiedä miten. Minusta nuo jalokivi-BOMisi näyttävät tosi kauniille!
Fenix found the perfect spot to rest once again.
Nice picture.
