Every barn should have a quilt, wouldn't that make the countryside look fantastic? Love it !!

Love this one. I really like seeing them as I drive along the
highways, & I think everyone else does too.
While traveling in Iowa this weekend, we saw two at the same
farm -- one on the house & one on the garage/barn.

Bring artistic & crafty is still the same, no matter what 'technique' is used. They did a beautiful job!!!!

gigi10, I love the quilt in your avatar.
Info about the pattern, please?

caliquocat 08-08-2011 02:15 PM

I love pictures I've seen of the barn quilts. I hope the idea continues to grow. We have several dairy barns in our area just begging to be decorated.

Wow, oh, Wow! Love those colors! Make her a little one for her bedroom wall. Ask her to design another one... for the outhouse.

wvdek 08-08-2011 02:20 PM

How neat! Love the colors and design.
Which block pattern is it?

She must have colored that block with every possibility before choosing her favorite combo. This weekend Dad went to her house and hung it on her barn.

I know they keep track of these, do you have to let someone know about it.....the person was on Nancy Z. show......
