Instead of having more quilt museum quilts today I decided to share my progress on the Fab Farm quilt. These blocks take a lot of concentration and precision piecing and it's exactly the kind of sewing that I love. I have finished the 4 pigs. Fortunately I brought all of the extra fabric with me. I had made 2 cutting errors, one too large and one too small. Then, on the pink pig I sewed one of the ears wrong. It's all fixed now. Now I'm on to the goats! This little guy is not wonky as it looks in the photo. The goat is so cute!
Yesterday we went into Farmington to look around the cute little town. There's a nice quilt shop downtown called Pins and Needles. They have some yarn too and I was looking for a H size crochet hook. Unfortunately they only had Susan Bates and I don't use that style. I found what I needed at Walmart and then we stopped by the seafood market to order lobsters for dinner tonight! Back to the museum photos tomorrow.

sometimes it seems like I can find more at wal-mart or hobby lobby than I can at the quilt/yarn stores cute pigs!
