Wow, am I tired! This heat plus getting things ready for Cora to start Kindergarten (wow!) is wearing me out! We just had a parent-as-co-teacher training for the past couple of days for Cora’s school, a University Model School. I could be overwhelmed by all the information and the prospect of teaching Cora on her at-home school days, but I just want to take a nap. I think that’s how I cope: by wanting to crawl back into bed!
I am a week behind in my Farmer’s Wife Quilt Along, but I did manage to churn out a couple of blocks this week. I also managed to finish a queen sized quilt top that I will share when I find the energy. But back to the FW (focus!).
This week I used colors that reminded me of orange and raspberry sherbet. Fitting, given the insanely hot temperatures. The orange block picture below is number 17, “Cats & Mice”. My easy block for the week is the orange-peach-pink block and is number 20, “Churn Dash”. These blocks cooperated with me this week and I did not need to do any seam ripping. Hooray! Although they came out a bit small at 4.25 by 4.25 inches.
And pictured below is the prettiest part of my design wall:
Off to veg out on the couch!

Your blocks look great together. They are going to make a nice quilt.
