Super Duper Top Secret Project...Revealed!

Well, well, well......They are finally going to hang the Top Secret Project.  I am so happy......I should go pick up my sister so that she can see what is going on.  



Hey......sister.....want to ride?  We are getting ready to hang the Super Duper Top Secret Project!!!
By the way....it happens to be a BARN QUILT! 



Oh YES!!!   I want to go too!  



Brian and Larry the Magnificent arranging the pick up of the project.  Larry has all of the best toys.  His backhoe is a neighborhood favorite.   By the way so is Larry.  



Hey.....either Larry has changed his look or that is someone else in the driver's seat.  



Oh wait....Now I see Larry.  



This is so much fun......




Hey....look...a parade.   



Almost there....



Hey mom.....why are you not helping????

Bumble, someone has to take pictures, you know.  


Okay....I will pick up your slack.  Just a little to the right please! 



Larry the Magnificent.  



Oh that looks grand.  I sure hope everyone likes it.  



Maggie.....jump for joy!  We finally got the project up.  WooooHoooo.



Hey.....wait a minute......Maggie!  I think your dad just left without you!!!!  



Dad!!!!!!!   Wait for me!!!!!  


I would like to thank Caryl Bryer Fallert who gave me permission to paint her quilt "In The Marsh #1".  You can follow the link to Caryl's website by clicking on her name.  Thanks once again Caryl!  I would also like to thank Larry the Magnificent and Tom, Liz and Douglas.
A huge special thanks to Brian who helped gather the materials, put together and paint the barn quilt.  
Also a shout out to Mike and Franze who have no clue that this is even on their barn.  
Surprise!

  8. Fantastic! I bet your friends were surprised!

    There are no barn quilts that I know of in Texas. Around here they build barns in the middle of big ranches so even if there were barn quilts you would not be able to see them from the road. And most Texas barns are made out of corrugated tin and look fairly dilapidated. Sigh.
