Quilt Shot Block #23~ Hole in the Barn Door

12 inch block

Hard to decide if I liked the dark or the light near the center.

I took pictures to help me decide.  Still not sure of my choice?

I guess an entire quilt of this block would look nice to alternate.

 I found this pattern years ago in a Quilt Magazine.

       As you can see, the quilt in this magazine shot shows the block on point.  I've seen this pattern with all of these names and is usually in solid or print or both. When I set out to make this block, I didn't realize I had the piggy pattern fabric.  I had just enough to make the hole.

       A few months ago, someone showed on their blog the "Hole In the Barn Door" quilt they had made.  Each block used an animal print in the center.  I thought that was a cute idea.  If you are the Quilter I'm talking about, please leave a comment.  I'd love to link your blog to this post.
