Old Maid, Katherine, Susannah – Farmer’s Wife 1930’s Sampler Quilt

Old Maid

I love this block! The pieces were the perfect size to show off the Horizon prints and this block will fit in beautifully into my quilt!

Kate Spain: Horizon
Hello Kitty: Hiroshima
Aurifil: 1243

Katherine

It’s hard to make anything red lower in volume, so adding some white and grey is my attempt to do so! I think I’ve mentioned it before that all of Kate’s reds are pretty much the same shade. Which is great to easily mix the lines together, but makes my life so difficult #mylifeissohard

Kate Spain: In From The Cold, Joy, Flurry
Hello Kitty: Kobe (Port Tower)
Aurifil: 2250

Susannah

I think Susannah is Katherine’s twin sister… fraternal, not identical. For the record, any block that features Flurry is always going to be on the top list of faves, as Flurry (and Good Fortune) was my first Kate Spain purchase!

Kate Spain: Flurry, Canyon, Solstice
Rilakuma: Osaka Castle
Aurifil: 2835
