WTG! She's quite good at chosing colors for your design!

You can hang them on your garage or put on the front porch...alot of people in IL put them in their gardens.

nena 08-09-2011 11:48 AM

Beautiful... Wish I had a barn!

IBQUILTIN 08-09-2011 11:51 AM

Super great. I want to do one for my Dad's barn in Ok, but I can't seem to get there

dixiebelle162002 08-09-2011 11:55 AM

beautiful and what a great barn. I need that at my house.

pattipat 08-09-2011 12:17 PM

Beautiful barn quilt. Since most people do not have a barn has anybody ever thought about doing a mailbox quilt. Or even a yard quilt. My thought is something along the line of the flags you used to see hanging the mailboxes.

firequilt 08-09-2011 12:28 PM

love it... got to get hubby to make me one!
