Julie Sefton has a book! A long time ago she asked me to make a barn block from the book directions. I did. Sent it off to her to get quilted, binding, and hanging sleeve!
And I was sworn to secrecy.
Hold right hand up.
I promise not to breath a word of this adventure and what I have done.
I was officially a SSOBB.
Here is a link to the books blog.....
Here you will find links for all the other SSOBB members and snippet pictures of their barns.
They are all totally awesome!
Slowly each one will be revealed.
So, while still working on the house, I have made a decision....
Someday when the kitchen is done, I'll hang that quilt on the new wall area above the fridge. Only it won't be a fridge, it will be a closet door there. All this house stuff is taking up so much of my life right now. It is a good kind of stress, at least it will be worth it when finished.
I took a picture of the block lotto mystery blocks that I have done so far.
There will be 99 blocks when we are done.
So I am sewing a little bit too.

You have your butterflies done already?!?!?!?!?! I just downloaded the directions yesterday . . . Good luck with the house stuff. We've had some remodeling going on here too (master bath - removed jacuzzi) - worth it but lots of mess in the process.
I am so envious of you sneaky barn-builders. I can't wait to see all of the barn quits. And I LOVE your vibrant sampler blocks!
Good luck with the renovation.
Looking good already! One day both will be finished ... Until then, just enjoy :)
Good job on keeping that secret! That must have been tough! I'll go check out the book's blog.
Sorry about the remodel. It always seems to take forever and makes such an awful mess. But hopefully it will be worth it in the end.
Love your Old MacDonald blocks! They're bright and cheery!
OH! OH!
L-O-V-E your Old McDonald blocks….ouch, they're super cute!
