I had thought about doing a few imbellishments within the pattern, but, I like the clean look and lines on it, so I'm leaving it alone.
Barn Quilts, which started in 2001, are quilt block patterns painted on sides of barns or painted on plywood boards and attached to barns. Barn Quilts can be found in approximately 21 states. I make smaller versions that I call 'House Quilts' that will be attached to houses rather than barns. If you are interested in having one made for you, go to my website at www.barnquiltsbydave.com

Patriotic Theme
My wife and her friend Sue have been quilting buddies for about 5 years. We met Sue and her husband, Joe, about 6 years ago at a country dance bar, Cadillac Ranch, in Southington, CT. Yes, the four of us have been country line dancing for that period of time and love it! I've got the cowboy boots to prove it......and I'm not bad on the dance floor!!!!
Well, my wife and Sue usually quilt on Saturday's together, switching back and forth from each other's houses. Two weeks ago Sue was at our house and was working on a quilt using a pattern that she loves called Hunter Star. She mentioned to me that she would like a door quilt for the summer, honoring Memorial Day and Fouth of July. So, being a good listener (of course, my wife will disagree!) I put two and two together and came up with the Hunter Star pattern in red, white and blue.
I had thought about doing a few imbellishments within the pattern, but, I like the clean look and lines on it, so I'm leaving it alone.
