I had Chelsea (www.chelseaquilts.com) do the quilting for me, knowing that I could never manage to work this beast through my normal household machine, and I'm so glad I did. She did a wonderful job.
I used Carolyn Friedlander's Widescreen Crosshatch fabric for backing, which ended up being just wide enough to use without having to piece any other fabric into the backing to bring it up to size. Phew! I was relieved to not have to deal with that for such a big quilt. The binding fabric is Moda Bella Solids in Scarlet.
Thanks for stopping by, and be sure to visit the Blogger's Quilt Festival and check out all of the other entries in many categories. Have a great day!

It's a fabulous quilt and so much work went into it!
Ooooh, your Farmer's Wife quilt is gorgeous! :)
Absolutely gorgeous, Heather! These fabrics are so beautiful together -- you must be so happy with it. I'm glad to see you blogging again :-)
Love it! Amazing what modern fabrics do for the traditional design.
Love this quilt with these fabrics!
This is just gorgeous. What an awesome accomplishment, and your fabrics are absolutely perfect! Congrats Heather! I bet you're thrilled to have it done!
I've been considering this setting for my Farmer's Wife blocks which are waiting in a pile. Seeing your beautiful quilt has clinched it for me. Nicely done!
Wow! This is so gorgeous! What a wonderful and bold choice the Chicopee is. Yours makes me want to make a Farmer's Wife Quilt! So impressive!
Beautiful quilt, the setting is really great.
Really great quilt! Love the colors.:)
What a great idea for a beautiful FW quilt!!! I love colors of fabrics and your quilting :)
I know it's very laborious project, because in Poland is currently in progress draft joint sewing FW over the whole 2015 years. The more bravo !!!

I take my hat off to anyone who finishes a farmers wife! I have made I think four blocks and some of them are deceptively fiddly.
Kudos to you! It looks amazing! Almost, key word almost, makes me want to try one. I know I just wouldn't do it. But I love this!!!
wow, amazing!! I love how you alternated on point and square. Brilliant.
What a lovely quilt. I love the colours you've used.
Gorgeous!!! I love the fabrics and the quilting. It has such a pulled-together look, but still has a feeling of happy variety. Congrats on a beautiful finish! :)
Beautiful work!
This is so perfect Heather! I love Chicopee and the retro feel it has, even with the very traditional blocks your quilt is so fresh and modern looking! The blocks look amazing and it was such a great combination. Beautiful quilting and you did the right thing, I couldn't face a big quilt on my machine either!!
Having read this I believed it was rather enlightening. I appreciate
you taking the time and effort to put this content together.
I once again find myself personally spending way too much time both reading and commenting.
But so what, it was still worthwhile!
