I was in on this right from the start, when Julie started the quilt See Rock City, and later when the book idea was just an idea. Not only am I a charter member of the Secret Society of Barn Builders, but I'm proud to say that as a friend of Julie's I was one of those who proofread the book, so it was somewhat of a surprise (but not really) when I opened the book and saw this.
Holy Quilting, Batman!
The book is awesome. Julie tells the story about how the quilt came to be, my small part of it, (and Chris's) and she shows you how to make your own barns. The book, as an object itself, is beautiful too. The pictures are great, and the layout is lovely. There are several beautiful touches, like the strip of blue that runs throughout (you are gonna have to get the book to know what that is).
I am so excited, and so very very proud of my best pal Julie. She has done a terrific job. Get this book!

Congratulations to Julie on the publication! I visited the SSOBB blog and I'm really impressed by what the ladies did with their test barns.
