    Default First attempt at a barn quilt.

    My husband has wanted a shed and I've always wanted a barn quilt. So we finally came to a compromise.

    That is so beautiful, could you send him up to Canada. What is the size of your block? Any special treatment of wood before and after painting

    That is probably the prettiest barn quilt I've seen. And what I can see of the shed is wonderful as well.

    It's awesome! I always love seeing them when I travel. It gives me a warm feeling about those who live there. I'm happy for you. My daughter made 6 of them for me one Christmas. They are seasonal and I hang one on the front of my garage every two months.
