A woman named of Donna Sue started what are now the large, brightly colored barn quilt squares appearing on barns throughout the Midwest and East. In Ohio in 2001, she made the first remodeled block of a barn quilt square in honor of her mother. Typically, the squares are 8' x 8' and made with two sheets of 4' x 8' plywood. The pattern can be taken from any quilt block or from the imagination of the artist. Bright colors and bold contrasting patterns stand out better from a distance than intricate designs with subtle shading.

Many of these coordinates are verified on site by the owners or Google Earth. Some, however, are not and based on the address alone. If there are any errors please post them here and we will correct them as quickly as possible. We will also be adding many more barn quilt locations as they become available.
