Lucky in Hazy Skies Have you ever seen a Barn Quilt? They're really popular out on the east coast where I grew up. It's basically a huge quilt block, painted onto a massive piece of wood - like 8' x 8' - and meant to be hung on the side of a barn. Ohio Star in Black Flying Geese in Aqua Sara, a very talented friend of mine, made a small one a few months back, and I was completely smitten. I was dying for one. So I called her up one day and she gave me a few tips to get started. I made one, and it was love, pure and simple. So then I had this crazy idea: I should make them to sell - as indoor decor. Because if I had wanted one that badly, I figured there might be a few quilters out there who would love one as well. (And...you see... besides being terribly cute, I had this extra motivation: We've been living on sub-floors for the past 5 years, and I'm truly desperate to earn some extra money for wood flooring. =) So I figured it might be worth a try.) Gold Rush in Gold Shimmer Last friday I had my first flash sale over in my Etsy Shop, and in a matter of 10 hours I had as many orders as I could fill in a month! It was crazy. (picture from this past sale) I'm pretty much in-love with these Barn Quilts. And it seems like a lot of other quilters are too! Each Barn Quilt is 11" x 11", and though solid wood, is lightweight enough to hang on a wall, or prop up on a shelf. There are 4 different styles: 1 - Lucky 2 - Flying Geese 3 - Ohio Star 4 - Gold Rush And 6 different color options: 1 - Navy Blue 2 - Hazy Skies 3 - Gray Smoke 4 - Gold Shimmer 5 - Aqua 6 - Classic Black And then you get to choose if you want a natural edge, or stained. It's pretty fun stuff! They are sold as individual Barn Quilts, or in Sets of 3 or 4. (set of 3) (set of 4) Lucky in Navy I'm doing the hustle over here to get all these blessed orders filled, and I'm loving it. And I already can't wait for next month. FYI... My next Flash Sale is 4/15 @ 5pm (MST) over in my Etsy Shop (here). Listings will go live right at 5pm, and I will be taking a limited number of orders, so if you're thinking you might want one (or four!), be sure and mark your calendar so you don't miss out. They go fast!
