Old Red Barn quilt finished!


One project down a bazillion to go. I finished the binding on this baby last Friday and we finally got the shelf hung up yesterday to put it on. I love how it looks in Maceys room. It just makes it feel so much more "homey." I made this to enter in the Old Red Barn quilt-along contest. All you have to do is make the quilt with the pattern posted on the website and post a picture of your finished product and the picture enters you in a contest to win a Janome 6600 sewing machine. I would LOVE to win it! My dream sewing machine would be a Bernina, but I'll take whatever upgrade I can get. I really do like my old Kenmore, but something with more options would be fun. Here's the back of the quilt with a strip of leftovers on the lower third.
My favorite part of the quilt. I asked the quilter to stich Maceys name on a block and she embellished it with cute little flowers. Love it!

Anyways, that's all for now. I'll have to download pictures off the other camera of the 4th - later.
