More Fun on the Farm Blocks!

Fun on the Farm with Quilt In A Day...

For those of you who love BOM programs...especially FREE BOM's, then this is definitely one you should look into.  It started a few months ago, but it's never too late to jump in.  I participate through the Facebook Group page: Fun on the Farm with Quilt In A Day (click to go to the group page)

I’ve fallen behind on my #funonthefarmbom by a few months due to having too many sewing projects going on at the same time, but here's some more blocks I did manage to get made since my last post on this particular BOM subject...

Here's my “Matt the Sheep” quilt block.  However, I decided to make this block my own way, rather than following the sheep pattern provided for April’s block. Instead, I made the #folkartsheep using a #paperpiecedpattern purchased online. Then raw-edge appliquéd all the rest to complete the #quirky look I wanted. I do wish I had used a different shade of sky fabric for the background, though, so the sheep would stand out better. But it’s too late now!
Note: Here’s where the pattern can be purchased for the Folk Art sheep:

Love me some quirky, paper-pieced, #farmanimal #quiltblocks,

with added #appliqué embellishments, LOL!

Just had to get a photo of these two blocks, side by side!

My #sheep is bigger than my #horse 🤣🤣🤣 LOL!

 Next, here’s my #chicken block, which of course, I did my own way

rather than following the pattern that was provided for this BOM.

(Lighting is not the best since it was night time when I took the photo,

and the ceiling lights always tend to make photos seem yellowish).

Anyways, I love #quirky and #wonky so my chicken is quirky,

and my bale of hay is wonky, LOL! 🤣🥴😂

The chicken is paper-pieced, and her name is Lotta.

I purchased the pattern for Lotta from Regina Grewe a few months ago at

And most recently, I made a second

paper-pieced / appliqué Lotta the Chicken block...

this time for someone else, though.

After sharing my photo in the Fun on the Farm Facebook group
of the first Lotta block I made,

another group member jokingly commented she wanted one, LOL!

I told her I would make her one if she really wants one, so I did!

Now that it’s finished and mailed, I can share a photo of it. I hope she likes it! 

 (I love how much better this photo looks than my first Lotta block...

I'll have to retake the other one outside in the daylight to get a brighter shot)!
