“When quilting meets coloring, beautiful things happen!
The nostalgic beauty of Laurie Aaron Hird’s bestselling Farmer’s Wife Sampler Quilt series has been captured in this commemorative coloring book designed around time-honored blocks and inspired fabric motifs. Laurie’s traditional blocks, inspired by actual letters from 1920s and 30s farm wives, give quilters a glimpse into this country’s rural roots and commemorate the strength and hope of women of the Great Depression. These coloring pages depict many of the same beautiful blocks reinterpreted in line-art illustrations, creating coloring pages to delight quilt-lovers everywhere. Also included are 7 patchwork designs that capture the American quilting spirit. The perforated pages include highly detailed fabric designs to color, offering you the simple joy of creative expression.”
Coloring in sheets are a great way to calm the busy mind, as you focus on the coloring techniques your brain is actually able to calm itself and focus on less. Coloring is used to help relax and calm anxiety and stress. Coloring keeps out mental health in check and allows us to develop of creative brain. We highly recommend Copic markers
or Faber castell coloring pencils .

I’m so tickled that coloring books have become trendy. I remember when my son was a preschooler, some twenty years ago, I loved to sit and color with him. I even wrote to a cousin and expressed my delight, then felt foolish that I’d written that to her. Now I can come out of the closet!! This book looks especially delightful. And boy, after a frustrating struggle with taxes today, I need this.
Wow! Sweet!

What a great idea for a coloring book. I love both coloring and quilting!
I moved to a small farm in the UP last summer. We did raise two pigs and have chickens and ducks for eggs. There was alot of cleanup and garden prep so our garden was small. This year is going to be bigger and better. I also decorate cakes and cookies and sew when I have the time. I want to design our own barn quilt for the farm. Perhaps I’ll get some inspiration while coloring in the book.
I love coloring books – and vintage styled quilt patterns; what a great combination!
I surely would love to win this book. I have the companion book The 1930’s sampler Quilt Book and also the Farmer’s wife Pony Club Sampler Quilt. The coloring book would complete my collection.
