Comfort of a quilt
Dear ##firstname[Friend]##,
##\keycode.DonorContentHTML##

For untold generations, quilts have connected family and friends who appreciate the warmth, artistry and stories stitched into each square. And now, quilts are beginning to connect a growing network of rural communities determined to preserve their iconic, beautiful old barns.

 

In the October issue, reader Linda Rinta and Suzi Parron, author of Barn Quilts and the American Quilt Trail Movement, share their experiences exploring the quilt barn trails. As an added bonus, we’ve put together a slide show of Suzi’s photos.

After viewing the slide show, be sure to visit with us on Facebook. You’ll find amazing photos posted by readers and new friends who share your love of Country.

—Robin Hoffman, Editor
