the farmer took a wife ... 

 

... and then she made a quilt. 

These are only a few of the several dozen pictures I took the other day.  But it's the weekend already and I promised you something by now.  I want to write a more thoughtful and detailed post, mostly about the longarming artistry done by my friend (and I'm sure she has a magic wand in her sewing studio too), but I've run out of time.  So please know this is an abbreviated tour of my quilt with yet another promise to show you more next week.

Deal? ;)

Hope you have a good one!

Wow, wow, wow! I've been looking forward to seeing this one since you first started it. It's glorious and definitely my favourite Farmer's Wife of all I've seen. (Sssh, don't tell the others..!)

I loved it so much, I came back for a second look. Yellow has never been a favourite colour of mine (not sure why), but I've learned that it is essential when creating balance. You've added just the right amount to your quilt as, no surprise, it really makes everything pop.
Sighhh, I'm in awe.
