Farmer's Wife in Your Life

I was SO excited Sunni asked me to create something special for her new series Farmer's Wife in Your Life. Inspired by the beautiful Farmer's Wife quilt, this series will give project ideas for people who only want to make a few of the many Farmer's Wife blocks. I can't tell you what I'm going to make yet, but I can assure you: it will be awesome!
