These are first five blocks for my Farmer's Wife Sampler quilt. I use book called "Farmer's Wife Sampler Quilt" by Laurie Aaron Hird. There are 111 six inch blocks to make. I kind of like this six inch size. It is cute and small, but not so teeny tiny to make one frustrated. As you can see, this is going to be scrappy version. I hope to draw everything together with some nice, nearly solid sashing and borders.
I am rotary cutting and sewing by machine, although I might try paper piecing or templates and hand piecing in some blocks. And when piecing number five, bat wing (lower left corner in the picture), hand piecing would have been a good choice. I eventually managed to quick piece it sort of the way I make flying geese.
Other modifications: On number four, basket weave, arranged block little differently.
