ANOTHER DAY!!!





 Just as I promised, here are the final 6 quilt patterns.  You may notice there is one that appears to be totally different than the others.  It's the one with the star in the middle.  The barn star dates back to as late as the 1700's.  It began with the German community and was thought to bring good luck, much like the horseshoe.  While taking pictures of the barn quilts, I noticed a number of houses with "stars" on not just the barns, but on the home and even on the doghouse.  So, pay attention when you're out driving.  Perhaps you'll come across some "yard art" that captures a feeling for you.  Enjoy!!!
