I was so happy to be asked by Sunni to participate in her series, Farmer`s Wife in Your Life, which kicked off at the weekend.
Farmer's Wife in Your Life is a series inspired by The Farmer's Wife Sampler Quilt by Laurie Aaron Hird. The series will focus on using 6" quilt blocks in everyday sewing projects. I know many of my bloggy friends have made Farmer`s Wife blocks and perhaps they`ll be able to use some of them in a smaller project inspired by the blog hop!
Here's the schedule.

I am still pondering what to do with my estranged wives!
Such a good idea! Saves me making another 60 of them and still enjoying the ones I made.
Looking forward to seeing what you do with your divorcees
