Snowball in Florida

Today is a snow day in the sunshine state.  And while we haven't seen any snow, just sleet, I am enjoying some time to quilt.  I was inspired last week at Let's Be Social to revisit the Farmer's Wife quilt that I started in 2011!  So here it is, block #81, 'snowball'.  I can confidently say that I am the first of my FL neighbors to build a snowball today!  Snowball joins the 'box', 'spool' and 'contrary wife'.  That's 3 years in the making, friends!  You think this quilt has a snowball's chance in Florida?!  I am at a clear disadvantage here, I just need more snow days!  Let's be social!  Jessica Pearl

  1. LOL! I love your Florida snowball. Do you want to make the whole quilt, or just a sampling?

  2. I love the fabrics you used for the snowball! It's going to be a very pretty quilt.

  3. I'm farming away too and am hand piecing them as putting those tiny pieces through the machine scares me ... I've done 17 so far, perhaps we can cheer each other along!

  4. Glad you were inspired to revisit this project, Jessica! I love your snow ball block and seeing it with your other blocks made before. Those are some gorgeous fabrics. I like the Cross Stitch one! As for the snow days... You can have the rest of ours. We have had quite enough!
