A couple of reminders: 

The SSOBB Blog Hop is a 12-week series 

focusing on the SSOBB Charter Members.

The Blog Hop is intended to give each of them 

a chance to share their stories,

whether it involves the making of their Gallery quilts,

sharing their perspective on being part of

 the Secret Society of Barn Builders,

or sharing new free pieced work they're stitching --

this blog hop is all about recognizing their contributions to

BUILD A BARN and The Free Pieced Barn Project.

The Free Pieced Barn Project 

began in 2012 with the creation of See Rock City.

It continued with a book proposal and publishing offer 

that became BUILD A BARN:  No Pattern Construction.

The book includes an external gallery

of incredible free pieced barn quilts

created by the Charter Members of the 

Secret Society of Barn Builders (aka the SSOBB)

showcased on the book's blog at

http://thefreepiecedbarnproject.blogspot.com

The Free Pieced Barn Project will continue this fall 

with three public exhibitions of 

the SSOBB gallery of quilts --

first as a Special Exhibit at AQS Chattanooga,

(September 14-15-16-17, 2016)

next as a Special Exhibit at AQS Des Moines,

(October  5-6-7-8, 2016)

and finally at the annual Davies Manor Quilt Show in Memphis.

(November 4-5-6, 2016)

Links and more event details will be shared

just as soon as they are available.

In the meantime,

during the SSOBB Blog Hop and

The full SSOBB Blog Hop schedule

It will always be available on a tabbed page

HINT:

there is a Bloglovin "follow" button and a "follow by email" option 

in the BUILD A BARN sidebar.

Hope you'll join in the celebrations of free piecing and barn building!
