Piecemakers Barns - an UFO

Last night I dug out this UFO. I haven't worked on it for at least 5 years.... This is one block - the top block is my favourite. I plan to use it int he centre of the quilt.

This is the original quilt design - Piecemakers release a quilt calendar with patterns each year. The theme of the 2003 quilt is barns. I plan to make my blocks square, and make log cabin-style sashings around and between the blocks.

I enjoyed collecting the fabrics - this took a couple of years.

I fused all large pieces onto backgrounds before starting any free-motion applique. This means less bobbin-changes. I do all the grey on all blocks, then all the red on all blocks and so on.

I thought I would do a bit last night, then realised why I had stopped. I don't have the thread colours I need!!

I think I can rectify that now... and get stitching. After all, I only need to buy one colour of thread at a time!! LOL!!
