Beautiful materials! More barns, huh? Well, they fit you like a glove! (So to speak!)

Well--I want to make a small one for my barn buddy--and one for my niece.

So ah Celeste--what do you know about barns, hmmmm? Do tell. :wink:

I actually have eight made up now. :wink: I had enough fabric you sent me to do the roof, front, & silo for two sets! One I did with dark and light "sky" fabric, and the other set I'm using your method - grass until the top.

Gotta get to work on those trees now!

The covered bridge fabric had the red added to the sides and was made into a back for the barn quilt--which is at the quilter's getting spectacular things done to it. :wink: She has the Sunny Day quilt too.

The greens and blue will become part of barn wall hangings, but I need to finish the Tree of Life wall hanging first.

I was on vacation last week--now with teaching and horses, my quilting time has diminished, but that's okay. It's always waiting for me when I have the time, and energy.

Love it, love it, love it! Thanks for sharing! I really like the 2 lime green fat quarters, but I liked them all. Does the Mennonite shop have an on-line shop? If so, could you pass on the website?

The fat quarters came from Joannes. Mennonites don't use computers. :wink:

The quilt shop I took my barn quilt to has gorgeous fabrics--but most are $9 a yard, including the breathtaking flannels. :shock: They had some gorgeous fabrics on sale for under $6, which I would have grabbed if I hadn't bought so much at the start of my vacation. It was hard, but I left it all there. :cry: The sale price was pretty much what the every day price is at the Mennonite shops, even more.

I will not buy more fabric. (repeating as necessary)
