My New Barn Quilt Sign

Daughter Linda gave me the promise of a new barn quilt sign for Christmas last December. We decided on the size (3 ft x 3 ft) and the design (a variation of Star of the Orient by Judy Martin) and the colors (see the picture). We removed the old 2 ft x 2 ft one and she is refreshing the paint and will hang it over the garage door.

My granddaughter Brittney Kuykendall visited this week and she helped finish the painting and her husband Erik did the climbing and hanging. It looks beautiful! The repainted smaller one is ready to hang by the next relative who visits from Texas!

While the painting was going on, Tanner and Kylee Jo baked a pound cake and sewed pillows. Erik painted tattoos on Knox's tummy and back. They had a good time on their way to the beach.
