As I had printed all the pieces for the remaining Farmer’s Delight blocks and as I have an idea for setting these together, I decided to work on them while I wait to do the final pressing of Chintz Circles and then baste it. There will be 12 of these blocks in total. The first six can be seen here. I had forgotten how much fun these blocks are to put together. The centre goes together in no time. Stitching the bands of triangles that surround it is fast as can be, lots of continuous stitching makes it fly by!
The back of the centre part:
Lester was resting on the windowsill for a while after watching what was going on out there. The teddy bear in this photo with Lester is a special token of appreciation from the kitties to Mr. Q.O.
Smudge, resting after his yogourt treat Monday night.

I love these Farmer’s Delight blocks. I’ve just been washing some fabric ready for printing some of the pointy Dresden plate shapes onto in similar colours to these.
