I’m not sure if anyone has done this before, but I want to make a quilt. Not just any quilt, but a Farm Girl quilt. What I would like to do is get a 6.5” quilt square from any and all farm girls who want to do it. Fabric pattern and color doesn’t matter too much, but I do want the name of the farm girl sending it on the square, and maybe the state where they live. You can embroider it, stamp it, paint it, what ever, just as long as it shows up in the middle of the square. Once I get all the squares, I will piece them together then quilt it. After it’s completed, I’ll post a picture of it on the site with a list of names of the contributing quilters. If anyone is interested in sending me a square, just email me and I’ll answer back with my address. Thanks to all who help me complete this very special quilt! I hope I hear back from ALL of you!

Kim - I got your square and it is exquisite! I just love the cactus and the 'pricklies' on the top. Girl, you are certainly talented. Thank you so much for your help with this project!

Sounds like a challenge. I would love to send a square. It would be fun to see how many states could be represented in the quilt.
Let us all know when, where etc.
Life's too short to sit in a box all day. Get out and do something creative.

Hey, Barbara! Yes. Every square I get will be incorporated into the quilt. There is no way I could leave out even one of these squares - they are all just too beautiful and too well done! If I don't have enough squares I'm adding some of my own. If I have 'too many', it just means making a bigger quilt!

April, Audrey and Judith - I DID get your squares and I love them! Thanks again for sending them. I'll be starting on the quilt in about two weeks or so, so if anyone else wants to send one, just let me know and I'll wait for them. I can't wait to get started!

Sarah and Kim, I would love to have a square from y'all! I'll email you with my address, and when you get it ready, just send it on! Judith, April & Audrey - YES!! I got your squares and love them! I really need to make a list of all that I've received, so everyone knows I got them. I am sorry I've been out of touch, but farm life and heat will wear you out fast, as you all know! I'll work on that this week then post! Thanks again, EVERYONE, for helping me with this project!
