WOW - look what I started and the many replies posted. Thank you one and all. I got home this afternoon, disciplined myself to vacuum first and then hit the computer to check this Board. What helpful people quilters are. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
As promised last night, I did make an uneducated guess at how these barn blocks could be made. Needless to say, I need a book or video and I shall get one shortly.
Anyway my barn has a lot of problems, especially on the haymow side and the perspective is all wrong on that side too. I tried red thread button hole stitch for roofline but that does not look right at all so will go around again with black to highlight it. I want to straightline stitch within the wood fabric and the posts need to be darker too.
Then I have some great rock fabric which I will either make a rock wall or a stone base to building all around. Of course there will be a fence, some animals and sunflowers. Not sure what block will end up being (maybe just a reminder that I do not know what I am doing--lol) but I sure am having fun and that is the main purpose of quilting.
Thanks again for all the links provided. Here is my first-step in photo. I will follow-up with another picture when I get it finished.
Different barn for experimenting
