My first barn quilt
 

In the summer, we take our rv to the UP of Michigan. it bugs me that I don't have the space to spread out and work on my quilts for 2 months so I decided to check out tents. We have this ez up that we never use so I found this accessory for it called a camp cube, it hooks to the top center peak and just velcros to the legs, takes about 10 minutes to set up. Now I have the perfect sewing room and "my space". This year, I decided I wanted to try my hand at making barn quilts which I love to see along the backroads of our travels. I have one that my cousin made but I wanted to make one of my own. This is my first.

I'm very impressed with your new space! Way to go! Beautiful barn quilt, great colors.

Oooooo, that's nice...love your barn quilt.

Great accommodations with even the dog all comfortable. Question though--the barn quilt, is that painted wood? It's beautiful.

Love your barn quilt and your great work space!

great space and nice work

I love your space! I have lived in MI all my life and have never crossed the Big Mac -:(. Great weather up there for outdoor camping and quilting. What a way to keep the bugs and bear away -:).

What a cool find for your pop up canopy. I never have heard of that before so had to go online to check them out. That's a perfect solution for your traveling sewing studio!

I get it with not being able to quilt for months at a stretch and it looks like you've solved that dilemma! I'm hoping to solve that problem for myself once we move...this week...and then I want to make a barn quilt too.
We took a road trip a couple years back through W. Va., and saw lots of barn quilts. Picked up a brochure on where to find them across the country, with pictures and info. That was not part of our plan but was a welcome surprise.

Love what you did and love that the dog is also welcome...

Love your barn quilt and your fabulous sewing place!!!

Very nice and the dog is perfect. I love dogs.

Creative work space, indeed! Awesome! And love your barn quilt. I'm making one for my new home, as well. Fun project!

Very nice your space, comfy looking dog. Beautiful barn quilt.

In the words of the Wizard of Oz, "Very resourceful!" And great job on your barn quilt too.

Ditto! How clever you are.

You look so cozy in your newly created space...and your dog looks comfy as well! You have it neatly organized.

Your barn quilt block is awesome! Is it wood or foam? I like your color choices.

I love your new quilting space! What a wonderful solution to your problem! I bet you've just helped many people with finding a way to add that needed space! Giving up quilting for 2 whole months is torture!!

Yes that is my new obsession along with making the cloth quilts, I have been painting barn quilts to hang on barns, buildings, houses or fences.

I'm from Missouri, I didn't think about a bear

It is painted on wood, 3 coats of Primer, 2 coats of exterior latex, then the colors are all exterior latex 4 coats per color to last a long time in the elements

Love your new space (and your barn quilt!)
