Photo Challenge to Harvesting Corn
The photo challenge word for this week is, BIG. Here is a quilt I made back in 2009 that depicts big that I named, “From New York to California.”
I decided to make some changes on my new project “Jacob’s Ladder.” I’m changing out some of the blocks for paper pieced four-patch blocks.
Here you can see the sections of the SLM charity quilt done so far.
I kept Georgi one day this week.
Yesterday I took some parts to the field for Quinten.
He changed out the parts in a hurry and was soon back to cutting corn.
And what is Austin and Quinten looking at?
Oh dear, the grain cart needs some work done to it.
I dropped Paul off to bring the grain cart back to the shop for repairs.
Paul was still working hard when evening came around.

From New York to California ~ what a neat quilt! Enjoyed your harvest pics. There is not the anticipation regarding harvest on this farm that there usually is ~ the drought has wreaked havoc on our yields.
An interesting entry. I like the quilt you chose to represent ‘big” and the bright colors on “Jacob’s Ladder.”
Julia, I love your blog and reading about your family, farm, and quilting. I am working on a Jacob’s Ladder quilt to enter in NQOF as well. We farm and I was exicited to see the huge ears of corn you were harvesting. We have been hit hard by the drought. Marilyn
