The barn project is progressing slowly - with a lot of contemplation between every step. I have to muster my courage a lot!!
Here's a closeup of the smaller barn...
- There's a really nice cross stitched jonquil pattern HERE. If you go HERE and look at the bottom you will see links to different flower patterns for each month of the year. Really pretty! And if you check out her free patterns in her sidebar there are a number of others that are really nice.
- I didn't know dog ears on pillows were a 'thing' but evidently they are and you can find out how to avoid them HERE.
- Are you an itty bitty scrap hoarder? Do you want to stop hiding them and feeling guilty? Well, how about making THESE?
- I really like THIS - not sure I'd actually wear it, but I love it.
Another anonymous quote for you...."A recent study has found that women who carry a little extra weight live longer than the men who mention it"

ReplyDeleteVery nice. Thank you for the link, those quilt magnets are adorable.
ReplyDeleteBoth barns are looking fabulous, Mary Anne. There is no limit to your creativity!
ReplyDeleteI've seen that quote before and it still makes me snicker. What is the fabric you are using for the barn siding. I'm telling you, you have done amazing embellishment to it. This piece is really coming together.
ReplyDeleteI would have never thought of making magnets from tiny scraps!
