The Third Barn

Finished the third of four of my barns for the Little  Red Barns quilt.  Another cute block. :) 
Although it looks as though one leg of the windmill is crooked, it is the way the fabric puffed up a bit, when I placed it on the table.

*** NOTE:  I cannot take credit for selecting the fabrics for these blocks.  They are provided in the BOM kits from Shabby Fabrics.  The 'windows' portions are preprinted on fabric and provided with the pattern and buttons.  ***

Barn #2

This is the second block for my Little Red Barns quilt.  It came in the mail yesterday and upon opening the package,  I went to work.  Very unusual for me.  It was all put together by late last night, with the pieces for applique the only part left.  A giant sunflower to go with the giant stalk of corn from Block #1. ;))

Uh, huh, uh, huh...yep,

call me crazy....Why?  I did it again...yep...signed up for another Block of the Month.  How many does that make?  Actually, I honestly don't know.  But a friend told me once to enjoy the journey, not necessarily the finish.  Believe me, I have whole heartedly put that into practice! ;)  Anyway, my latest endeavor is the first block for Little Red Barns by The Quilt Company.  Here's the full quilt:Little Red Barns.  My first block arrived on Saturday, and I started working on it Sunday night.  Finished up the applique this morning.

The little stack of animals comes on a preprinted piece of fabric.  I love my "giant" cornstalk!

Now, we return to our regularly scheduled stitching....Heart's Desire!
