Topic: SHOW and TELL (3/10) - The Quilt Show Forum

Welcome, Guest

Join us on a TQS exclusive 12-month creative journey along America’s backcountry roads as we bring you "The Patchwork Barn Quilt," a fabulous quilt designed especially for TQS by Edyta Sitar. A spectacular medallion quilt featuring a barn nestled amongst rows of ‘crops’ (blocks). Edyta’s design inspiration was the result of observing the painted quilt blocks on the side of barns as she traveled across the country.

Known for her love of colorfully elegant scrap quilts, Edyta has this time, used her magic touch by combining a wide variety of blue and cream fabrics set against a creamy background. The resulting design is a stunning, but quieter scrap quilt that is sure to be a family favorite for generations to come. Each month we will provide photos, detailed directions for a portion of the quilt, and full-size patterns.

I so enjoyed making this BOM. I loved making all the different blocks each month. I decided to do a different layout and a different center block. I grouped my 6 inch blocks together in groups of nine, making an 18 inch square. I made a house block for the center using Lori Holt's house pattern from her Farm Girl Vintage book. I did meander quilting over the whole quilt with my domestic Janome machine. Such a fun year making this quilt! Sorry about the photo quality; it is hard to take indoor photos in the winter.

brentprim, I didn't purchase the kit, as I had quite a lot of blue, caramel and grey fabrics I wanted to use. I made my own templates, using Becky Goldsmith's method with self-laminating sheets over the leaf, twig, flower patterns provided in the instructions. I applied two layers of the self-laminating plastic sheet, as that provides more stability to the little patterns. Then cut out the patterns, of course!
