I want my son to make me one. We have a large shed that would be a perfect place. I just have to decide what block I want. Maybe instead of just one I should consider 4 together to make the block, like a mini quilt.

I talked my DH into taking a class to make a barn quilt...of course, I picked a difficult pattern. He did a fantastic job and painted on exterior plywood provided by the instructor. After hanging on our garage for a month or so, I noticed that the "quilt" started to delaminate.
I have all of the paint to make another one...I LOVE a a barn quilt...but am concerned what product to use.
We moved the delaminated one to an inside porch (looks great there).
I want one for the peak of the garage and one for our cottage.
Can anyone tell me what type of board to use? Marine Plywood? Someone suggested MDO board but I have no idea what that is...
