DWM

It's Design Wall Monday and I want to thank Judy at Patch Work Times for hosting the great every Monday show and tell. Make sure you all pop over to see others have been working on.

Hooray! I was able to get some sewing/designing in this weekend. I worked on my barn blocks. Would you believe it's taking me longer to do the "filler" blocks than it did to make the initial barns. Here's what I have so far. In no way am I finished but I happy with it so far.

 

First looks.......

I'm having trouble with depth perception in a couple of the blocks but I'll figure something out.

I did make a couple more barns because I just couldn't help myself and the odd number appealed to me.

 Second looks........

Standing back looking at it from a distance............I know that the blue fabric in the last block (mountains) will need to be another color.......I thinking a graduated brown/rusk/beige...........what are your thoughts??

 

This is what that last block looks like without the mountains.

I did this block to look like a run-down barn in a field or off the side of a road.

The cloud type pinkish gray fabric is actually the backside of this particular fabric which is muted and I think subtle.

Anyway, I'll need to work on these blocks a little more.

 

 Many thanks to Paula, the Quilter who allowed me to use the title of

 "All Fenced In" to depict my quilt.  Even though not all the blocks have fences, which was what I intended, I really like the name. Thanks, again, Paula!!

I'll think about borders after I figure out depth.....sigh....

So, what do you think??? I'd love to hear from you.
