Tennessee Quilt Barn Charm

 I think I actually stopped for all of these shots...the only one I am not positive about is the top and I am pretty sure we at least paused...
 The last three there was actually room to pull off....
 I am always amazed at the applique blocks with all the curved lines. 
And whoever did this Mariner's compass really had a job and had talent.
Hope you have enjoyed them...linking to Barn Charm

Lovely----If a barn is lovely then it is one with a quilt.
Not seen too often out this way.

How was the week with Mz. Hippity Hop? MB

Wonderful finds Rose!
I still want to do my own for our barn-like detached garage. Maybe that should be my winter project. :)
I think the first and the last are my favorites.

Love the quilt block collection! I really like the last one with the weathered boards and rusty roof--they picked the perfect block for it.

Wow, you found a lot of the barn quilts! They're so interesting. My farrier has one on his barn - he's showed me pictures but I haven't seen it in person.
