This is from a pattern in the book Creative Log Cabin Quilting. Im not a fan of so much red but the pattern called for it..and I couldnt think of another good color to make a barn.. So Im pretty pleased with the result. My horses are going to be grey and either a cream or tan. I think brown will be tow dark the pattern calls for cream and grey, but I think I might get away with a tan horse :lol:
If you have this quilting book take a gander at page 127 and tell me what ya think. and if you dont have the book as always I appreciate any and all input :thumbup: Adding another pic maybe this one will look better. The dot in the left window is from the camera..not on the actual fabric. :-( |
Sounds like a great project. I can just imagine those horses looking out of the stalls.

Looks like fun keep us updated

Hi there,
I did the exact same pattern...I put two horses into their proper "stall", but decided I'm going to put a cow in the third one....lol I think this pattern is just too cute! Sandi Fl |

Can't wait to see your appliques. Looks wonderful so far!

It's going to look great. We have a neighbor who has a red barn, and they have kept it up for over 50 years or more. It has always been a landmark, where we can tell people if you see the red barn, you are almost here.
Thanks for sharing. Look forward to see the horses in the barn. Roundup time. |

Can't wait to see the finished project. |
Yes, I have that book and have made 2 wall hangings, but I happened to find some fabric that looks like wood and another that looks like old bricks for the barn. Then I found some blue fabric with "clouds". Yours looks great, can't wait to see the horses.

What a great start!!! I've made that one too and had to deal with what color horses Joanne's allowed me to make. :wink: I have one dark brown, a palomino, and a gray (silver in mini colors :lol: ) The horses aren't too bad to get on there. I had the hardest time with the bridles--one piece went through the eye! So I put on halters. :lol: I used two different colored ribbons. Placing the eyes can be tricky... just keep looking at the pattern!
I have to make another--a two horse barn--for an auction for a horse rescue place, so it's great to see yours! Thanks for sharing! |
