Do you remember the Farmer’s Wife 1930’s Sew-Along I mentioned the other day? Well, I just happen to have an extra copy of the THE BOOK: “The Farmer’s Wife 1930’s Sampler Quilt” by Lauri Aaron Hird and I’m going to give it away to one of you!
I really hate to make my giveaways U.S. only, so here is what I am going to do: if you live in the U.S, I will pay for the shipping. If you are international, you are still welcome to enter, but you will need to pay for the shipping. I hope that doesn’t sound tacky!
The contest will be open until Thursday, September 3rd 11:59pm EST. Winner will be selected by random number generator. All YOU need to do is leave a comment, any comment, to enter.
Good Luck!!
Thanks for a chance to win a copy of this book. The project looks like fun!!!

I would love to win this book as it would keep inspiring me and also remind me with every quilt block, that it was you and betteroffthread that was the inspiration! Thanks again.
This book has a great selection of traditional blocks.
I would be more than happy to pay for postage if I win : )

It’s a bright sunny day here in the Midwest with the temps going into the lower 90’s this week. Looks like we’re getting our summer just before Fall.
Autumn is my favorite time of year and my brother is wanting to take me on a two week road trip to New England this year. Winning this book would give me the perfect excuse to stop at quilt shops along the way as I’d need new fabric for the blocks.
Fingers crossed and thanks for the giveaway!
Love a great inspirational book.
I have been wanting this book forever! Thanks for a chance to win it!
I would love to have this book.
I just returned from an 11 day trip of 4343 miles around Minnesota for their annual quilt shop hop. I was looking for 1930’s fabrics and found some…ok. a lot. This book would be perfect to help me use up some of that collection. Fessin’ up. My fabric bill was larger than my combined gas, food, and lodging. So help me turn that fabric into something to cuddle under.

This book looks delicious! A wonderful giveaway!
What a great book, thank you for sharing this giveaway!
Crossing my fingers!
I would love to make this quilt.i make several every year for charity.
I would love to win this book.
I am a beginner to quilting. I started sewing when I was a child in 4-H group. I was a farm kid most of my life, in NE, the land was first my grandpa’s and then was passed on to my dad. We built our home there and my dad was a pure farmer!! Everything I know about honor and work ethic I learned watching my dad farm. When I married, I had 3 little girls and I sewed for all of them. I made the sweetest little dresses, all alike!!! Because of health stuff I didn’t sew for a long time – I’ve had five brain tumors in my adult life and breast cancer. It hasn’t been a bad thing because God was with me the whole time and blessed my life with healing. I am 64 now and want to get back into my sewing – I have plenty of free time and my goodness, a pretty good sized fabric stash!!!! I would love to have a copy of your book, it would be an honor. Thank you!
would love to win, thanks
I’ve heard so much about this book and would love to have a chance to win it!

OMG, fingers crossed on this one . . . Great giveaway!
This looks like a fun book ! thanks!
I’ve seen so many people love this book! I’d love to see what all the fuss is about! Thanks for the chance to win one!
Great giveaway and book- thanks!
I pulled fabrics that I love for a project I decided I didn’t love. So, this book would be perfect to use that stash bundle!
Just what I need to use up some of my stash! Thanks for the chance to win it!
It would be so much fun to sew along with this group! I’m not quite a farmer’s wife, but I’m a wife to a guy who grew up on a farm! I’m also a proud Iowa girl!
I would love to win this book and join the quilt along.
I would love to win. I have liked the pictures I have seen posted of some of the blocks.
Oh how I would LOVE to get my hands on one of these books!
So generous of you to share a copy. I’ve wanted to make that quilt since I first saw it.
This book looks awesome!
a great book and a fun project! thanks for giveaway.
Thank you for making it possible for us Canadians to enter too!
I have enough 30’s fabric stashed away I could do this. Would be a wonderful Winter project.
I have really wanted to start this project, but have resisted, due to the MANY others that have been started, but not completed. Well, if I won the book, I would have to participate in the sew along right?
Thanks for the fun giveaway, 30’s fabrics are my faves.
Would love a copy and maybe I can finally give mine back to the library. <3
I’ve had my eye on this book! Thanks for the chance to win it!
