You’ve seen barn quilts displayed on buildings around town. Maybe you, or someone you know, would like one. Maybe you wish you could make one.

Yes, you CAN make one!

You can turn any quilt block you like into a barn quilt.

Just choose your design. Here are some Pinterest examples.

Dark Star Fabrics will give you step-by-step classroom assistance and all the materials. At the end of the three-day class, you will have a finished barn quilt, ready to display, plus the know-how to make more barn quilts on your own.

Come join the Barn Quilt Movement and spread the beauty of quilting.
