Block-A-Day 319 – The Dandy Shed

Today I continue my quest in creating and posting one block a day of the fabulous That Town And Country Quilt by the lovely Susan-Claire Mayfield. This is day three hundred and nineteen of that project.

This quilt block shows a very dark, practically black, pentagon shaped shed on the lower half. It has a lighter grey frame on the outside and around the door. It is against a salmon-patterned blue background.

Here is a useful storage shed on Ziegler’s Dairy Farm.

The real Ziegler Dairy Farm is in Wisconsin in my daughter-in-law’s family.

I think this would be a handy shed for storing chicken feed, dog food, and small off-season equipment like a snowblower or lawnmower.

It has a wood floor, metal sides, and a roof to keep everything nice and dry. This would be a dandy shed on anybody’s farm.
