barn block
 
I have seen a few quilts that are made from blocks that are barns that have a quilt block on the side. I hope that even makes sense.:p
Every search I do for a pattern always takes me to barn quilts. The wooden ones that are placed on barns, which I do love BTW.
Anyone have an idea what to search for, or know where I might find that pattern?
Thanks

I don't know but I have the same problem trying to figure out what words to use in searches to come out with what I want, I guess I think differently than the search engines!

Look around the Quilt in a day site. She did blocks with barns and put little quilts on the barns.
Can't remember much more than that.

Years ago the Golden Thimble had a 9 month barn BOM that was really cute. It was as you say, barns with quilt blocks on them. Sadly, the site is gone. The patterns were free and I have most of them along with the finishing instructions.

What a cute tutorial. I love the quilt with the barn pictures with the blocks on them.

I remembered this thread from a while back. Maybe it will help.

I did the barn blocks from Bee in My Bonnet website a couple of years ago. It is so cute. I don't think the tutorial is posted any longer. Some of the barns have silos and some don't.

Lori Holt beom bee in my bonnet posted a number of quilt patterns on barns a year or so ago. Hopefully, this link will take you to some of those patterns.

Thank you all so much for the info, suggestions, and links. It has given me a lot to look at and try to figure out.

I have done several barn quilts on a 12x12 board. I like doing Bear Claw or the star patterns. Everything is square or triangle and looks so good on a 12x12 board. I have mine above the garage door (single car garage) and it is always so good to see it when I am coming down the alley toward home. Edie

#3 posting by PaperPrincess with a link to Etsy is for Golden Thimble's BOM quilt- not free though now. It is paper pieced and finishes at 42 X 48.

Farm Girl Vintage by Lori Holt of Bee in my Bonnet has quite a few different barn blocks in it. It is an awesome book.

"Log cabin schoolhouse". I just tried is on yahoo images and one came up in the first row of pictures. You do want the school house shape with the side as a log cabin quilt right?
