So I told my DH that I was going to paint the barn this summer! With his help, (he doesn't like to paint, so he provided me the loaders and hoisted me up to the high points). I finished everything but the white trim on the garage door. That will soon come, but I was just too excited to get my barn quilt up! I will get it finished soon. (Oh yea, I have two more sides of the barn that still need paint. Anyone want to lend a hand?) :D
This is so pretty and your barn is so nice, great job on both paintings for sure. I have a garden shed and was going to put a painted sunflower window on the side and in the garden but now just had the thought in reading all the posts, I am going to paint a Barn Quilt for the side in the garden and the side that faces the street for all to see on main road....thank u for sharing.
