Life on the Farm BOM Finishing pt 2? Are we still supposed to be waiting on this? Or are we now done?

Hey Janice! Well, there are two parts, but in the move I’ve misplaced the second and am sorting through a pile now trying to find the rest of it. This DOES NOT affect how you finish your quilt, you can do it however you like. It was merely some suggestions for things you might try. I will post this as soon as I am able to find all of the pages to this document. I apologize. Life here is not completely organized since moving and all we’ve had going on. I just last week got my office/sewing room/school room unpacked and trying to file things where they belong. Thanks for understanding, and for reminding me of this! Nichole

Hi Nichole,
Wonderful job! I have copied all blocks ,work in progress. I tried to copy block 10-old red barn cover photo but it atated did not start with phf[?] then tried to copy block 10 old red barn directions and the finishing directios part 1 was stated the file was broken and could not be fixed. Mot sure if that was form your end or mine. I copied all other bolcks and directions without any difficulties.
Keep up the good,no , excellent work

I hope you have great weather for your move. It is a lot of work but you find stuff and get to look at it all. (Is that good or bad!!??)
I love the farm patterns; you have done a super job.
Blessings

Hi Nichole. Thanks so much for going to all the time/trouble to put all the blocks in pdf. It’s much appreciated. The links worked for me.

Dear Nichole, I have been unable to open the directions for several blocks. Could you perhaps post them ALL as PDF files? (Pretty please with sugar on it?) I love your blocks! Caroline
By: Caroline Rader on September 20, 2010
at 11:07 am
Yes, I most certainly will work on that! I know it’s given others a hard time as well….so glad you like the blocks and I will do that and try to have that tab updated with all the links in one place.

Well I don’t do anything alone! Hubby is the builder and my son did the majority of the planting of the tomatos and veggies. My daughter does a lot of the animal care around here. And I don’t sleep a lot, ha! As far as sewing…like I said…I stay up really late and work on it while I watch t.v. or if I get a free moment or two I draw and plan and such. I also type pretty fast… honestly it’s just fun and I do not sit still much (a genetic thing from my mom). We’ve been on a school break since April and so our days are our own…and so in the next couple of weeks I’ve got to get moving and get even more accomplished knowing my days are numbered! Thanks for your comment…and I am glad you are here! I love getting to know all you gals!
