Blossom and Bev: Farm Chores

Farm Chores

I love working on Farmer's Wife blocks because they are so fast to make that I can easily do one when I don't have much time. Here are the two latest blocks:

Block Sixty-eight, Postage Stamp. The last two Farmer's Wife quilts I made, I made this block from all sorts of fabrics just jumbled together. I decided it would be fun to use the reds and pinks on this one.

Block Sixty-three, Ozark Maple Leaf. As you know, I've put together a fabric starter kit of Fat Eighths for this quilt and so far, have just used fabrics from this kit. I know that the blocks don't seem to go together but when I get a few more finished, I'll do a collage of them together so you can see. A fast, fun quilt. I also completed the blocks for the Austin Bluebird BOM. That's the quilt from Minick and Simpson. I'm making sister quilts--one from the fabric they send and one from my stash fabric. These are big blocks so I need sunshine to take photos and it's raining here today (thank Goodness)!!! So what are you guys working on this week? It's back to my pesky "real job" for me. I still have to make the Aurifil Challenge block for the month of September. Anyone else making that quilt? Well, take care everyone! XO and cheery wave from Bev

Have a great day!

This mowing twice a week is for spring when we'll do any yard work as long as it doesn't include snow. Looking forward to seeing all your block in a collage. Great colors!; September 2, 2014 at 10:20 PM

To All My Dogs Who Have Gone On Before Me

An Important Personal Message

My dear friends - Have you noticed that the world seems to be getting more and more evil and corrupt? Have you ever wondered, assuming that Revelations is true, where we are time-wise and what will happen in the last days? At the bottom of this page, there is a 7 minute video that has no narration, just Bible facts about the sequence of events and where we might be. Of course, some of you won't think this is important, some of you might look at the video to see what the Bible does say and some of you may be offended and unfollow me. I personally believe that time is short. We are at 30 seconds to midnight. Things are coming this year that will affect the USA. Watch or not. I mean no offense. If I believe there is something to warn you about and I don't do it, I will be held accountable. I care about what happens to all of us. In love!
