This is called a "Slice Quilt" and is named "A Slice Of Langley Life". It was made by a group of 8 quilters, all members of a smaller quilting group I belong to called "Around the Block Quilters". It was based on a photo that a fellow quilt guild member had taken a few years ago of a farm in Langley, BC. Each one of us was given a 'slice' or portion to work on and we collaborated on our choices of sky fabrics to make sure that one didn't stand out too much. We met several times to make sure our fences met up correctly but other than that we all interpreted it in our own way. My 'slice' is the second one from the left with 1/2 of the barn in it. It was definitely a learning experience but a very enjoyable one too. It was a big hit at our biennial quilt show last May 2014 and is now owned by our guild and displayed whenever we attend functions to promote our guild.
Not sure which photo is better so I added another one.
