And now for some quick reminders and updates:


ONE


The SSOBB Blog Hop is a 12-week series 

focusing on the SSOBB Charter Members.

The Blog Hop is intended to give each of them 
a chance to share their stories,

whether it involves the making of their Gallery quilts,

sharing their perspective on being part of
 the Secret Society of Barn Builders,

or sharing new free pieced work they're stitching --

this blog hop is all about recognizing their contributions to

BUILD A BARN and The Free Pieced Barn Project.


TWO


The Free Pieced Barn Project 
began in 2012 with the creation of See Rock City.

It continued with a book proposal and publishing offer 
that became BUILD A BARN:  No Pattern Construction.

The book includes an external gallery
of incredible free pieced barn quilts
created by the Charter Members of the 
Secret Society of Barn Builders (aka the SSOBB)
showcased here on the book's blog.

Look for the page tabs for the SSOBB,
and then for the tabs with each Charter Member's name


AND A VERY BIG ANNOUNCEMENT
