Gloria - thanks to you so much for your hard work at doing these quilts. Our chapter will have a square in this second one (North Florida Farmgirls), and I so wish I could travel to North Carolina to see it and meet MaryJane. Anyway, thank you again for making the quilt, and for all the hard work, and for being the really nice person that you are! You are amazing!

Gloria, I just had to chime in and say thank you too! I cannot begin to imagine the time you have spent with this project. You are an incredible quilter and an incredible farmgirl! I can't wait to see the end result.

I know that MaryJane was going to take the quilt with her to North Carolina today, and we'll see if we can get some photos of it - I'm really anxious to see it, too!
XOXO, Libbie

Hi Sunshine,
If I remember correctly, your square came in late and so it became the "odd man out." I think it's still here waiting for our *someday* third quilt. Isn't the second one gorgeous!!!! You should see them in person. Gloria put a million, no a trillion, stitches in them. Thank you everyone for creating such a precious testament to farmgirl community and unity!

sunshine, all the blocks that were sent to me were put in either #1 or #2 quilt. There was a utahfarmgirl in #1 if I'm remembering correctly.
Cindy Lou was handling them then and she actually gave me the list for the labels.

Thanks for letting me know I thought maybe it was lost in the mail. Maybe it can be a pillow or some other thing as the group is now disbanded since two out of three moved. I think both quilts are beautiful. I actually have a few signature blocks for you from the block swap. I am waiting on one more. Then I will mail them to you. If group one ever gets done you should get some from there too, same size as group two but smaller than these in these two quilts and not all red work either.
have a lovely day and may God bless you and keep you safe my blog http://sunshinescreations.blogspot.com

So glad you like it Aunt Jenny! I think it turned out beautiful! Of course it couldn't have been without all those beautiful redwork blocks! Maybe we will get to do it again!
And thanks sunshine too! I await the exchange blocks. I can see a beautiful quilt just for me.

I love the second quilt, too. Wow, what a collection this could get to be! Priceless, and good enough for the Smithsonian!

Both quilts are as beautiful as can be. I am so glad I got to be part of the whole thing. My chapter is on the first quilt and I now am the only one in the chapter, but lovin' it. Isaw the first quilt 'in person' last year and it is breath-taking. I mean awesome. Berries is the GREATEST as are all the farm girls. Mary beth

Lots of hard work there. Beautiful job. I like to make soft puffy quilts and either stitch in the ditch or hand tie.

Thanks for posting this again. I loved being part of it and I loved being at Farm Fir where I got to see it 'in person'. AND I met a lot of Fabulous Farm Girls----now I have to do a 'where are they now' hunt. MB

It is sad that I don't recognize very many names in this quilt.
