Coop quilt part 1

The coop has been finished for awhile, but there is a large blank space just begging for a coop sized barn quilt.


I was inspired by this blog post, please check it out! http://chickenladysgreatadventures.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html




Keith cut a 3X3 piece of hard board and I primed it with some left over Kilz we had from painting the coop.









Here are the colors I picked out to be on the quilt block pattern.

I made a design on graph paper, and then drew a grid on the primed board.













This is the first tape-up for light green paint to be applied.









A second tape-up and yellow paint added











Here's the tape-up for orange rays.











Orange paint is applied and left to dry.

Stay tuned...

There is more to do tomorrow!
