that would be sensational infact it inspired me to look at a peice of fabric I have, I think it would be perfect for your barn although you may have what you want. this was a fat quarter I used some of and am now done with its LQS fabric if your interested I would be happy to send it to you. just send me an addy. I do have a smoker in the house a dog and cat.
wishing you great success.

I think that EQ programs 6and 7 have features that will let you do this. Import the photo, trace it and with a few more steps.....paper pieced maps.

wow,not something I will try but I sure respect MTS for taking her time to give you so much info. With all the input from so many lovely ladies you should be able to get lots of ideas. I've always said some quilts take more hours than some of the worlds prized art. Be looking for final pic.

She is very nice and talented. Our guild had her couple years ago for 2 classes. She was lots of fun and very helpful. If you get a chance take a class from her.

I was wondering if it would be a lot easier if you reverse printed the pattern onto the freeezer paper and attached it to the reverse side of the fabric. That way you could stitch along the paper to get an accurate stitching line. Seems like a lot of extra chance of getting it wrong not being able to see the paper.
