Quilt Envy

Camille Roskelley over at Simplify posted today about her Farmer's Wife Quilt, and I am very envious of her gorgeous blocks! Hers was the quilt that inspired me to do this quilt in the first place. I love the lively brightness of her color choices without making the quilt overly bold or in your face. Really I wouldn't mind if my quilt looked exactly like hers. However, I am not a professional quilter, like she, and I do not have my own moda line to furnish my creative interests. Nevertheless, I am more inspired than ever to continue piecing my squares, and I may just attempt to complete four (or six!...) this weekend. I've decided to add a widget on the blog that counts down the squares I have remaining, similar to Amy Adams' countdown on her cooking blog in Julie & Julie. Camille may only have 17 squares left while I have left 103 to go, but I am more motivated than ever to work on my quilt!
