Barn quilts are a form of American folk art that are usually made of simple geometric shapes – squares, rectangles and triangles. They’re often painted in bright, solid colors, though every now and then you’ll come across one that has more complex patterns and colors. There are many reasons why someone would want to add a barn quilt to the barn, garage, shed, fence or home exterior. Just because you don’t have a barn doesn’t mean you can’t add a bit of American folk art to your home. In this class you’ll learn the basics to create a 24” x 24” barn quilt. You will leave with a completed barn quilt; the pattern, and the knowledge to create more barn quilts in a variety of sizes.
