Cabins, kettles and windows

I had a Lori Holt Farm Girl Vintage blitz this weekend and did both last week's and this week's blocks. I might not get ahead with this project but I'm determined to at least keep up.

First up were the Grandma's Quilt Block and Haystacks blocks. I think I might have flower overload in the second block.


The haystacks I remember were never that neat. or colorful. 

Next up were Kettle's On (a phrase I can relate to from my childhood!) and Kitchen Window.


I think Kitchen Window is one of my favourite blocks of this project so far. This project is a great example of a skill builder, something I like about well executed BOM projects. Not something I can say about the Craftsy BOM project for this year which I've sort of lost interest in due to its repetitive nature. Perhaps I'll catch up at some point but there's only so many half square triangles I can stomach sewing!

  1. These are looking great! I particularly like the top one. I've fallen behind a bit, need to crack on and catch up!
