Instructor: Mary Jo Schmid

Have Fun! Barn quilts are vibrant display of outdoor art. They are large flat pieces of wood painted to look like a quilt block, comprised of simple geometric shapes, and are painted in bright colors, the same patterns found in handmade quilts. They hang on barns, houses, fences, or integrated into a garden. They are beautiful displays of Americana Folks Art that celebrates women's contribution to agriculture. In this class, you will learn the history, learn the simple techniques of painting them, and create your own barn quilt square. You will leave with patterns and ideas for making additional barn quilts.
