I have seen many in Kentucky and other states. Decided to paint a smaller version on the back side of an old window and then attached the window to my garage. Also used another larger six pane window and painted the US flag on the back side of it. It is hung on my crib. Love both of them!

These are beautiful and I love all the great color. I also want to know what kind of wood you use. Or if it even matters since they are sealed.

Thanks to my friend for creating the template and my roommate for painting it! Next, the sign for the door that says “Girls and Dogs only” 🙂

I grew up in Ohio and the barn quilts adorning huge white barns always brought joy to my heart. These beauties are not familiar to the Texas landscape, where I have lived for many years. So, I decided to bring a little of my youthful joy to my Texas barn. I was blessed to have my son paint my quilt for me, as I am not so gifted with a brush. Now, not only do I have joy looking at it every day but so do others who pass by my barn. Thanks for sharing.

I never thought of putting any in my gardens, but I have been inspired. All of your barn quilts are beautiful.

Had never seen any until we made a trip up to Ohio last year. I LOVE THEM, and am going to give a try to making one. I think they are gorgeous. Thank you for sharing this.

Sturdy plywood of whatever thickness you think best. I’m thinking the full sized ones are at least 3/4 inch ply.

I would like to make 2 for my double gate entering my backyard. Thanks

And I have always loved them, and now to have them as part of my flowerbeds…thanks
