The week slid past. Some sun. MORE RAIN. More jackhammering (including right now). K “bricked his phone” (don’t ask) and I continued to work on a number of small village quilts and the Barn Storm (below).

One FB friend called it “Cabin on a Lake.” I can see that, but to me it is a barn in a field.

I didn’t like the Moon Face in this one (which was unintentional), so I added some stripes to hide.

There was also turkey soup with kale and a walk around Crystal Lake.





This year slid past…
Kind of incredible really
This weekend was a swirl of activity over here. Love the barn!
Would love to hear more!
I’m going to send you a photo.
I love this. To me, it’s a barn in a flooded field.
And Finn, always so critical!
Ha ha. I get why that’s your take!
Your quilts are so vibrant with color and life. Beautiful (as is Finn).
Thank you!

Come, come, closer my darlings, come, step up and get near the beguiling pumpkin colored barn, Dee’s barn, for the spell has been cast and the bewitching time draws near. To me, one side of her barn is red, the front is pumpkin colored and the barn is settling in for a howling good time. Already the land underneath is undulating and getting ready to erupt into a whirling dervish dance. Above the barn, the skies are readying to become a phantasmagoria of fright, cloud swirls, gathering momentum, waiting, waiting for the surprise that lurks inside Dee’s barn. For although the barn is pumpkin in color, Dee’s roots are Irish and when the barn door is open, no Jack O’ Lantern will greet you but Jack O’ Turnip for in Ireland, they used to carve turnips to signify the coming of Halloween aka Samhain:
Betwixt and between,
Many sights await to be seen.
Love this Marti! I hadn’t considered what’s INSIDE the barn and now I can’t stop.
Lost my comment from this morning…I love the barn! ~ Nancy
Oh dear I hope the comment business straightens out by itself because I don’t know what to do about it.
