Farmer's Wife Quilt Along Week 51

Holy Moley!  Week 51?!  Really?

#62 Old Windmill

So remember last week when I went all bizzaro with this block?

I felt the same awkwardness about this one too.  But I guess I must be tired and simply don't have the energy to "think" so I just followed the pattern colors and ...

tada!  Love it.  Weirdness and all.

#93 - Swallow

This "white" print is arguably my favorite print/color from the entire "Flower Sugar" collection.  So I was happy to have a chance to use a slightly larger piece of it in this block.

I'm tellin' ya, fussy cutting really rocks!  That paisley in the middle will look awesome no matter which way I orient the block.

104 blocks down, 7 to go.  (I think I can, I think I can ... )

By my unscientific calculations, you are farthest along of anyone. Can't wait to see them all put together. It will be beautiful, for sure!!

ps - any ideas how you are going to quilt this quilt? Will you do each individual block or an all over pattern? (I probably ask you more questions that both your girls together, huh?... and if I lived near you... and if I had a snow suit... and IF we were shopping together, I'd probably do the same thing as your youngest in the grocery store... just to make you laugh.....or wet your pants... )
