My various piecing projects are inching along this week. This is block #62 in the Farmer's Wife Quilt: Old Windmill. The pink print is from my daughter's quilt, soon to be revealed, and the others are scraps from all over. Lots of HSTs on this one.
And block #63: Ozark Maple Leaf. I would never ordinarily have put these two fabrics together: oak leaf print leftover from my Tree of Life quilt and vintage sweet pea fabric from an old nightgown.
I now have a total of 107 blocks for the
Crumb Along quilt. I can't remember exactly how many I need, but I'll start laying it out when I have 25 more. That could be as early as next week at this rate!
This week I started and finished machine-quilting my daughter's quilt. She sewed down the binding yesterday and today, and tomorrow maybe we'll get the label on and take some pictures. Now I need to decide what's next onto the Megaquilter... I have a couple to choose from!
On the knitting front I've started a new pair of socks and a baby item. No pictures yet.

I really like your crumb blocks! Great use of scraps.
Are you still enjoying the FW blocks? I don't know about all those little pieces- too hard for me!
I so badly wanted to jump into the crumb quilt along. My scraps are overtaking my life and it's such a fun quilt. I just have too much going on right now. Your blocks are looking really good! It's making me wish I had started it!
I love that leaf block, it is beautiful and oh so fall like!
great crumb blocks!
Your FW blocks look great! I've been thinking about jumping in, but it seems so daunting!
You're doing a great job with your FW blocks, I need to get back in the swing of things with those blocks, I'm missing them!
What a fun idea the Crumb Along is! Beautiful blocks.
Good to see the Farmer`s Wife as it seems to have gone a little quiet in blogland. I just did my first HST block yesterday!
Your blocks are great, I need to get back to the FW blocks as they are so fun to do.
THose crumbs are going to be an amazing quilt - love them :)
maple leaves are super cute!
WTG on getting all those FW blocks done
Ooh! The Block #63 in the Farmer's wife! I've been looking for that one for ages! Love it in the green and the white.
And the Crumb Along Quilt looks so pretty 'n scrappy!
Scrap-tastic crumb blocks. What a great way to use up all those scraps.
You have the same blog background as I do. You sure have some neat looking squares going on there.
Your crumb along looks like a lot of fun! I have an overflowing scrap bin and may need to give this a go!
Twice now I've seen 'crumb' quilt a totally new term to me. Looks neat, though
Pretty FW blocks! I need to get going on mine again! Thanks for linking up to WIP Wednesday. : )
