Farm House Lane

This summer I've been working on a quilt from the Farm Girl Vintage book by Lori Holt.

Farmhouse blocks - Farm Girl Vintage

If you haven't already got this book, I highly recommend it.  All the blocks, quilts and projects in it are adorable and super easy to follow.


I particularly love 'house' quilts and so decided to make 'Farm House Lane' (pg128) using mainly Denyse Schmidt fabrics.

Farmhouse Lane Quilt top
Approx. 67" x 71"
If you are familiar with this pattern, you will notice that I haven't stuck completely to the brief (not like me at all!!!).

From previous posts you will know that I had started making the 16 x 6" Welcome blocks which go in between the rows. But they are a little time consuming so I made an executive decision and went for rows of 2.5" squares instead.

The 4 Welcome blocks became corner stones!

So now to make a back and think about how to quilt this baby!
