The State Fair of Virginia is having a Barn Quilt Contest. This year's theme is Sunflowers. Some of the rules are: only one square between 12" and 18." It must be pieced, not appliqued. It can only contain geometric shapes.
My entry finished at 17." I used a bunch of candies. Does it look like a Sunflower to you?

Just wanted to stop in and let everyone know I was called out of town for work on Tuesday. My boss became ill and I had to take her place. I am just hanging at the airport waiting for my flight. I plan on opening all my wonderful cards tomorrow and will be sure to post pictures.

Quilts are usually made up of a series of squares of the same pattern pieced together, a barn quilt is always a single square.
Only one square with backing, batting, and bound (must be square)
Finished square should be no smaller than 12" x 12" and no larger than 18" x 18"
Finished square should be pieced, not appliqued; it can be quilted or tied; hand or machine sewn
Only geometric shapes
