Barn quilt workshop

On May 9 a group of Guild members enjoyed making 2' x 2' barn quilts in a workshop led by Suzi Parron. It was held in a member's barn complete with a rooster crowing periodically. Here are several photos with a few of the steps of taping and painting, drying and several of the finished barn quilts. (Click on a photo to see a larger image) Additional photos can be seen on the May 11th post on the Guild's Facebook page.
