Building More Barns

I finally sat down with those 

long-pulled fabrics for my yellow barn.

I like the floral batik ground

but it overpowers the barn.

This KF print does more to make the barn glow.

testing design ideas using dry erase marker on a vinyl overlay 

I am going to quilt this particular barn

which is a very intimidating thought after 

the amazing quilting Chris did on the others.

However, I'm not ready to quilt just yet.

I have more ideas to play with first.

For those in the local area,

I'll be teaching BUILD A BARN 101

on Tuesday March 14 

and

 Thursday April 20.

(both local classes start at 9:00 and end at 4:00)

AND

I'll be teaching this week-long class

at the Folk School in NC April 2-7.

So if you don't hear from me quite as often

I'll be in the studio building new barns

and otherwise getting ready.
