I still love Quilting!


Here sits my main current quilt project, at the bottom of a pile, in the corner of the sewing room.   There's not much left to do until I can call it a finish!  I need to get my focus back on this quilt and finish it and I'm going to get it back out and set it up for the remainder of the machine quilting


Here's the top from a post about 2 and 1/2 years ago. I plan to post some progress on this quilt soon!   I started on it a looooong time ago.  It is the road trip quilt along quilt that I have posted the progress of many times.



Even if I'm not actively quilting, I never get too far away from my love of quilting, even just driving down the road.  Here are a few barn quilts I got a picture of this past weekend while in the mountains of North Carolina.




I really love barn quilts.  I saw lots more, but its hard to get a picture when you are riding down a very curvy road with a steep drop off on the side and you don't know that a barn quilt is coming into your view until its too late.

Have a blessed day!

A Sunday Nugget

We just returned from a trip to the North Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia mountains.  Without even trying to find them, I took pictures from the car window of at least 30 barn quilts! 

Here is one of my favorite Bible verses that I added to one of the pictures.


Have a blessed Sunday!

A Gift of Barn Quilts

My hubby and I celebrated our anniversary yesterday and what better gift for a quilter than a barn quilt?  Thanks Honey!

We have two outside buildings, a small one and a large one. This one will go on the smaller building, which is a light beige color.  I looked up this pattern and as best I can tell its a "Union Square" variation.


This one will go on the larger building, which is barn red.   The lady who sells them called it a "Stacked Star", but I didn't see it in my Quilt Block Book.


I will post pictures as soon as they are installed on the barns.
