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.

NOTE TO SELF: READ Barbara's Blog FIRST, before Cutting as well.

I have it printed out, but of course didn't focus on your finished back, which is beautiful. Would have been so much easier.

Hi, I am BEHIND, but will catch up eventually.

Has anyone had issues with pressing Block 6? I know that "pressing to the dark side" doesn't always work, for me at least. I'm striving to keep the blocks flat, which means getting the seams to nestle as much as possible - and looking at my backs, I think I"m going to have to clip a few seams, in order to do so.

Would love some input, ideas, thoughts.
