Farm Girl Friday & Giveaway


Today is my turn on the Farm Girl Vintage Sew Along blog hop hosted by the Fatquarter Shop and Lori Holt, using Lori's book, Farm Girl Vintage.



My block is the Spring Star Block found on page 62 of the Farm Girl Vintage book.  Lori does a great job of explaining each step resulting in a win every time!  The hardest part about this block was picking out the fabrics.




I had a lot of fun making a table runner for my dining room using this Spring Star Block, great fabrics and hand quilting.   Lori has lots of patterns in the book using her gorgeous blocks.


Be sure to check out the other bloggers on the schedule for more inspiration.  It's never too late to join in the fun! To help you get started I am giving away a copy of Lori's book, Farm Girl Vintage!


To enter leave your email address in the comments and a winner will be chosen at midnight on Sunday, September 6.  International friends are welcome to enter!  A big thank you to Lori Holt and the Fatquarter Shop for hosting sun a fun sew along!

  6. I love your block and this book. I have made the tractor block into a pillow with a pocket for little animals for my grandson. I would love to pay it forward to Deb from the birthday group if I win. Is that legal?

  7. WOW, really loved your fabric choices for the table runner- the black, pink and aqua just really 'pop', but my fave on there is that darling border, do you mind me asking what fabrics were used? Happy Weekend! :)
