    I love your barn quilt! I am just about finished with my leaf wall hanging from your hand embroidery blocks from last year. Just the binding left to do. Thank you for sharing your talent so generously.

    All is well in Pennsylvania for now. Thank You again for the lovely Owl! You barn quilt is wonderful. Having had the chance to live in Texas I can say the barns are differently the western type barns I saw. If I made a barn quilt it would look very different. Most of the barns in Lancaster are two story with the bottom sometimes housing the carriages...very Amish. I enjoyed seeing you put yours together as I could see Texas Ranch in each block. Makes me want to go find my cowgirl boots and put them on again!

    I love the big finish. Those borders are perfect, especially the fencing in the corners. It needs a better name than My Barn Quilt. A gathering of Barns? Country Barn Tour? Barns by Rhonda?
    I guessed x-ray might be a part of the x block. I was hoping for something a little more unexpected like the beautiful but extinct Xerces butterfly. The tetra is better known though.
    Yummy looking avocado. But when your ship comes in I hope to be the one sailing away with it!
