Summer Hummer Barn Quilt

I enjoy the Summer Hummingbirds that frequent the many feeders I have around our house. The hummingbirds become quite bold in their freedom of flight as I sit out on our from porch. It is not uncommon to feel like I need to duck as they fly from tree to feeder breezing past my seat. I’m continued to be amazed at the constant battles the male and female hummingbirds fighting for position at the feeder.

It is with this interest in Hummingbirds that I have created Summer Hummer Barn Quilt. My latest American Garden Barn Quilt is a pastel colored Barn Quilt with blues and teal colors featuring a ruby throated hummingbird, feeding on a orange / yellow centered flower.

I hope you enjoy Summer Hummer Barn Quilt from American Garden Barn Quilts. Look for this summer favorite coming soon to my SHOP

Summer Hummer 4X4 Barn Quilt


Thank You to all my 2021 American Garden Barn Quilt Customers

2021 was another great year for American Garden Barn Quilts. I painted over 60 Hand painted Hand crafted Barn Quilts. I also made my 1st Barn Quilts Shipment to Canada.

In addition to my agbarnquilts web site and ETSY site, I started displaying my Barn Quilt Designs at Brown County Craft Gallery in Nashville, IN. The Gallery is a co-op of local Indiana artisans who sell there craft and artwork in Nashville. I also work 2-3 days a month at the Gallery. I have several American Garden Barn Quilts displayed on the outside of the Gallery as well as inside. Please feel free to visit the Brown County Craft Gallery in Nashville.

I continue to sell my American Garden Barn Quilt designs - plus 2021 saw many customers requesting Custom Designs. This has always been an opportunity for customer to add their own personal touch on their American Garden Barn Quilts. Many request initials added to the design or custom color to match their homes.

January 2022 has also been off to a strong start. I have had several new orders plus a few 2021 Gift Card- Barn Quilts to create.

2021 also has been a challenging year. Shipping cost continue to climb. Specifically for 4x4 Barn Quilts. Due to their size, 4x4 Barn Quilts drive overage charges that have become increasing expensive. MDO Board cost have also doubled from the time I started painting Barn Quilts. I need to find a wholesale distributor vs buying retail!

I look forward to continuing to paint my artwork quality American Garden Barn Quilts to my customers in 2022.

Thank you,

Mariner's Compass 8'x8' Barn Quilt

IMG_2933 (2).jpg

Mariner’ Compass 8’x8’ Barn Quilt from American Garden Barn Quilts.

While Mariner’s Compass when completed is a full size 8ft by 8ft Barn Quilt, it is actually two 4x8 separate halves. Mariner’s Compass was my first design and layout of an 8x8 Barn Quilt. When I began the layout work, I had to decide if it would be easier to create the layout as one big 8ft Barn Quilt or lay the two halves separate. The are several design elements the required symmetry of the layout. The four main Blue and Yellow points of the Compass need to align to N, E, S and W to make the Compass Cardinal directions. Then the Maroon and Gray that make up the Ordinal directions need to align to the required angles. Additionally, the Yellow outer ring needed to be circular and symmetrical with the Compass points. To make sure I had the correct layout to meet the symmetrical balance that the Mariner’s Compass Barn Quilt requires, I choose to complete my layout work as a full 8x8 Barn Quilt. This also had it challenges as reaching the middle and drawing on such a large pallet was difficult. ( I don't have 4ft arms!)

For the colors of Mariner’s Compass, I chose what is becoming more of my signature light blue background as it represents a light blue clear sky. For the Compass points I wanted the color differential for the 3D effect while keeping the Cardinal Points and Ordinal Points in somewhat contrasting colors.

You can see from the picture above the result is a clean lined and simple - yet elegant Barn Quilt. I was very pleased with the final results of the alignment between the two different 4x8 sheets of MDO Board, you have to look very close to notice that this very large work of American Garden Barn Quilt Art - has a seam right down the middle of the Barn Quilt.

Like all my American Garden Barn Quilts, Mariner’s Compass is sealed on all edges with multiple coats of primer, high quality exterior paint and a water-based sealer to make this very nautical Barn Quilt weather resistant.

This 8x8 Mariner’s Compass Barn Quilt has been added to my SHOP for sale. Due to it size and the expense required to ship 140 lbs of MDO Board at 2x- 4ftx8ft dimensions, I am offering Mariner’s Compass to Local Delivery only. If a customer that is regional to Central Indiana is interested - please contact me by email.

Thank you for your interest in Mariner’s Compass 8x8 and American Garden Barn Quilts.

Thank you to all my American Garden Barn Quilt Customers in 2020.

My Barn Quilt business saw a lot of growth in what was a very challenging year for all of us.

Throughout 2020, I created more of my Traditional American Garden Barn Quilts, but also many Custom Barn Quilt Designs. As these are custom designs, these Barn Quilts are not published for purchase on my site - or published to the other platforms I market my American Garden Barn Quilts. I created several Barn Quilts with family initials as the center focal point. I also created Barn Quilts with family or business significant dates centered on a Barn Quilt design. (you can see example pictures below). To me, this confirms that Barn Quilts are a personal reflection and have special meaning to individuals and individual families.

I was also asked to create a 4’X6’ US American Flag Barn Quilt for a farm here in Indiana. The Barn Quilt was a bit of a challenge as all my American Garden Barn Quilts are hand painted and handcrafted. Creating the red and white stripes was pretty straight forward. The challenge was laying out and painting 50 stars with proper spacing and creating the clean crisp lines that are the signature of my Barn Quilts. You can see a picture in My Gallery - but the American Flag Barn Quilts turned out beautiful and the customer was quite pleased.

I have had a few repeat customer in 2020 and that has been very gratifying as this obviously means my customer enjoy and appreciate the quality of my American Garden Barn Quilts as they have made additional purchases for their homes and as gifts.

2020 has been a successful year for American Garden Barn Quilts, but it has been a very difficult year due to the pandemic that has impacted our world. The virus has taken its toll on our family and I pray that your family is safe. We all look forward to 2021 and a path to closure of this virus.

God’s blessing to you all - and Thank You again for all your support of American Garden Barn Quilts in 2020.

Busy Summer at American Garden Barn Quilts - August 2019

It’s been a busy Summer at the American Garden Barn Quilts Workshop. In July, I led a 26 member Barn Quilt Workshop in Brown County Indiana. It was a exciting afternoon as I led a hands on workshop to teach how to paint an American Garden Barn Quilt. It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon in the downtown Nashville community shelter.

Additionally, my Barn Quilts are on display at B3 Art Gallery in Nashville as well. Friday night 7/26 was the Brown County Art Walk and I presented my Barn Quilts on display at the Art Walk Reception at B3 Gallery. My Barn Quilts are on display thru 8/20/2019 in the Gallery.

I have several Barn Quilts in process as orders thru my website agbarnquilts.com and my site on Etsy at AGBarnquilts are picking up !! I’m doing a few custom orders - plus orders from my Gallery.

Beside Barn Quilts - Our Raised Bed Garden is producing vegetables for the summer!! I picked our 1st full basket of beans today. Tomatoes are beginning to turn red so were excited! Below is a picture of my new Barn Quilt SPRING CHICKENS - leaning up against my Garden Cart with one of our raised bed in the back ground.

New Glory Barn Quilt

I am in process of painting a new 2ftX2ft GLORY Barn Quilt.  I am using the same design and color as the 4ft GLORY. Actually I am using a bit of a softer yellow as I am currently painting SUNBURST.  This softer yellow make a warmer to the eye color scheme. GLORY has always been a favorite at the shows that I attend.  

 

I am also working with a professional photographer to get high quality American Garden Barn Quilt Pics for my website and future products  (more to come later - check back for updates).  I'm looking forward to improving the presentation of my Barn Quilts in my agbarnquilts/gallery.
