A little more done

I've been able to spend a couple of days at home so got a bit more done on the latest barn....




And here's a close up so you can see some of the details

  7. Lorraine above calls what you do "painting with fabric". What a perfect description. I love your fence in the pictures above. I'm amazed that you could "see" that fence as you were designing this block, but also that you could make your stitches look so accurately representational of an actual fence. Lovely, Mary Anne.

  8. MA, your barns just keep getting better and better! How many have you done? Are you going to continue with more? I really love them, especially the way you are able to capture the colors of aging wood.
