that is awesome - great job. it looks wonderful, like it was meant to be there

I like it and would like to make one for our cottage up North. We don't have a barn or a shed. I also thougt of making a small one to hang on the front door.
|
Wow! It is gorgeous... Yeah, here in Texas we do call them sheds, regardless of size. Such a wonderful gift! Was it a surprise? People will think of you everytime they lay eyes on it..
|
The strong design connects the (rather plain) steel shed with the decorated barns of the past....Is it on metal or some type of plywood or.........?
|
It looks great!!
|
Great job!

Thanks for your sweet comments. It's made of pre-treated plywood. I also used pre-treated 2x4's on the edges to help keep it from warping. It is 6' x 6' and weighs about 150 pounds! I primed it well using exterior primer. I used exterior paint to paint it and put several coats of a sealant on the top. Hope this is helpful.

Oh, yes the name of this block is the "North Star." My parent's last name and my maiden name is North. I used red, white, and blue because my dad served a few years in the military and is very partial to our servicemen and women!
and one for the front door is a FANTASTIC idea!! Think how nice it would look hanging on point! |
You've done a terrific job on the barn quilt! Thanks for sharing what you used to build it as well~
