Beautiful design, Alicia. I went to that website but it is closed. Darn!

Kem , your barn quilts are great! If I had a barn, I would definitely want it to have a quilt. They add so much beauty and color! Good luck with your business!!

in it was a pro and finished everything in one weekend i was still cuting and matching
and we don't have a lot of classes for quilters here anyone know any books that are good for beginners i can sew and have a lot of ideas like a garden quilt with all the veggies
i live two hours from the amish country and i live to go there for the quilt
but i found one in idaho that i just fell in love with and wanted so bad but the woman who made it wasn't around and they could not sell it it was a rag quilt unbelievably beautiful.
thanks deborah

Hi Debtea2
I have been watching a lot of YouTube videos and have taught myself about quilting. Classes were hard because many people in them were more advanced than I was. The thing to remember about quilting is that it is an expression of you, and that whatever you create is a work of art! Little by little, just like your quilts, you will grow and flourish in your skill. |

Oh how I luv seeing Barn Quilts....
There is a metal barn about 20miles down the mountain that has a "Flag" on the side...visable for motorists driving up the mountain.

Very nice words of support Chickie!
I've been making quilts since I was a girl. My great aunt showed me how to use a quilting frame. For quite a few years I made tons of baby quilts, for my own babies and others. I made a quilt for everyone who got married. I'm sad I didn't take a photo of everything I've made. My skill used to be so much better than it is now. I've relaxed a bit as I've gotten older. I'm thankful to just finish something...and if its not quite perfect thats ok. I still love it, the receivers appreciate them and I'm still sewing. Keep working at it...be happy with your results...it's a lovely craft.

I love your barn quilts, Kem! We have a lot of them here in Iowa; but, I have never made one.
Alicia, I think that flower design is beautiful!

My daughter made this barn quilt for me this past Christmas. I had wondered why she had asked me what my favorite quilt block was....
I decided to put it on the end of the old garage instead of our barn. This way, I can enjoy it everyday when I look out my kitchen window!
