Barn Quilts

While barn quilts have been around for many years, there's been a spike in popularity in the last two decades. In Adams County, Ohio, in 2001, Donna Sue Groves set out to honor her mother, Maxine, and her quilt art by painting a quilt block on her tobacco barn. The idea was a hit, and soon friends and neighbors wanted barn quilts of their own. Donna realized that her unique quilting could have quite the effect on the area, so she decided The quilt patterns don't have to be on barns, though. The quilt designs can be on the side of any buildings the quilter sees fit to put them on.  The barn quilts are generally chosen from a family's own colorful quilt pattern that has been passed down through the years. Then the family's quilt pattern is turned into public art on their own barn or other building, and it becomes part of a quilt trail. 

 

Barn Quilts can be used to show your support for your favorite sports team (professional or college), tractor brand, or the season of the year.  These can be hung inside or outside your home.
