BARN QUILT MANIAC!!!
Yep, that's me. Today, I'm going to talk a little bit about picking a pattern for your next Barn Quilt project. First, you need to answer some questions: Where is it going? How big does it need to be?
I picked the below quilt to use as inspiration for a Barn Quilt for our youngest daughter's family barn. Their horse is named Sunshine, so I browsed through the internet for "sun" quilts and barn quilts. And I picked the below quilt as my inspiration.
Knowing that we needed to fill a fairly big space, I determined that a 4' x 4' was needed. Knowing also, that the colors needed to be vibrant and bright, I picked through my paints.
Approximately 32 hours later, after a LOT of taping and changing colors, it was done. A few weeks later we delivered it to their home 5 hours away.
Recently, I received this picture, as they had hung the BQ in a perfect place! Sunshine it is!
