Barn Swap - Tammy

This was a swap class I took at annual meeting in 2000.  I loved it so much that I actually made and completed a quilt for Tammy's wedding.  My blocks are still sitting (shown above).  I just want a small quilt or wallhanging out of them now but haven't decided how to finish them yet.
Here is the quilt I made for Tammy.  I hand quilted and completed it in November of 2000.  The dates surprised me because I completed the class in Sept 2000.  That means I had to have completed this quilt from start to finish (hand quilting included) in about a month.   I remember actually still doing the hand binding on the way to the church.

I made all of the center barn blocks for the swap and came home with all different barn blocks made by my classmates. The barn blocks were all made a couple of months prior to annual meeting in September. I made the chicken and log cabin blocks after annual meeting.
