A brightly colored "Lewis And Clark" quilt block hangs
on a wonderful 90 year old barn.
Doesn't this barn look amazing against our blue, Kansas skies?

I am enjoying this opportunity to connect with the land around me.

Oh, this barn is fantastic! I love the lines of it and the quilt block is wonderful! I've never heard of that quilt block before. Very interesting! Have a nice week! Twyla
ReplyDeleteSome of these quilt blocks are new to me, too.
DeleteBreathtaking!!!
ReplyDeleteI thought so when I saw it.
DeleteI've only ever seen these barn quilts in photos, but I'd love to see one like this, under that bright blue sky.
ReplyDeleteI saw pictures of these barns in other states for a few years before I saw any of them in person. So glad I made the effort to go find them. I don't know if BC has any of these or not. Ontario does.
DeleteGorgeous blues in your pics! Enjoy:@)
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing like the blue of a Kansas sky!
ReplyDeleteThose colors are SO vibrant! Do you have any idea how long the quilt pattern has been on the barn?
ReplyDeleteThe quilt blocks are a fairly recent addition to the barn.
DeleteThat is a pretty one!
ReplyDeleteI think so.
DeleteIt's so neat to come upon one of the quilt barns! I'll look and see if there are any in Florida! I love the photo with the fence in it...nice contrast of colors. What a beautiful blue sky! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteAt this time it looks like there may be some, but they are not organized and there is no map to show where they are.
DeleteLove the colors! :)
ReplyDeleteThe colors on that quilt block are wonderfully vivid!
ReplyDeleteThe folks that paint these blocks do a great job!
DeleteWow, that's a gorgeous quilt block! Love your shot of the pretty barn against that wonderful blue sky!!
ReplyDeleteI would love to see this in person. Your photos are just gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI bet they have some near you! :-)
DeleteWhat a site that would be to see!
ReplyDeleteI love barn pictures and this is one of the best! The colours are amazing on the quilt.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Darlene!
DeleteI really love seeing these! They are so beautiful and neat!! xo Heather
ReplyDeleteIt would be fun to make a sampler quilt with some of these barn quilt blocks.
DeleteWhat lovely pix! Thank you for your welcome back to me...I have missed you too. Just doesn't seem right not to have my blogger friends in my life.
ReplyDeleteWe have quilt blocks on many building in Tillamook OR...so fun to drive around and look at them.
Love
Linda
Next time you visit Tillamook, I hope you get a couple of pictures to share with us.
DeleteThat sky is amazing - goes on forever. One day I hope to see it for myself. <3
ReplyDeleteOne of the things I love about living here.
DeleteLove this!!!
ReplyDeleteMe too.
DeleteBeautiful, especially against that bluest of blue skies.
ReplyDeleteI love these wide open blue skies!
DeleteSimply beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteYou know, at first I couldn't figure out what was so special about this quilt - then you said it - it is the wonderful blue sky to accompany it. Great shot!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful photograph
ReplyDeleteBest wishes
Jenny
Thanks, Jenny!
DeleteLove seeing the barn quilts -- it means that particular barn is well-loved. :)
ReplyDeleteI think it must be.
DeleteJust so pretty and vibrant on the barn. Love the old barn as well!
ReplyDeleteThis is so different to here in OZ. We don't have quilt barns as far as I know. This one is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteYou never know, they just might catch on there. :-)
DeleteThat is just simply lovely and quite the eye catcher.
ReplyDeleteTwo of the things I love most... simple and lovely.
