In between selling her home, moving and working on building a new home, Renee has managed to find time to stitch these seven barns! They are from the book 'Where the Cows Come Home' by Kathy Cardiff and Taylor Olvera! Wool applique, stitched onto cotton.
Aren't they magnificent...and did I mention that they are STITCHED?! Renee, who is new to working with wool, is HOOKED! She has two more blocks to stitch and in her words... "this project has been like a good book...I don't want to put it down and I don't want it to end!!" AND she's wondering what our next project will be?
I think I can safely predict a road trip to Temecula in January...with the first stop being The Wool Lady's Shop, followed by Primitive Gathering's Quilt Shop! Do you think we can find a project there to keep Renee happy...and busy? :o))
Thanks for sharing, Renee! Your blocks are absolutely DDG!!
Have a terrific Tuesday and Happy Stitching!~P
I want on her gift list...lol. Gorgeous !!!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat job, Renee. Working with wool is totally addictive. Welcome to the club!
ReplyDeleteYeah, she's hooked. Beautiful.
ReplyDelete"Like a good book", love that quote! There's always something great to be found in CA. Won't be long before you are there once again...packing?
ReplyDeleteFantastic! I've been looking for a Barn pattern for a challenge quilt that I'd like to make. A quilting friend of mine was recently in southern Cali, and did NOT go to Temecula! Shameful. :-)
ReplyDeleteLovely stitching!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful barn blocks. I just finished block 2 and have block 3 fused. It is so enjoyable.
