Spinning Star was chosen because I liked the pattern and we decided to place it on a 100-year-old granary. I am a quilter but I also like making barn quilts. Painting the barn quilt helped me to visualize squares. Quilts always looked so difficult to sew but my cousin taught me to look at each square. I also made a barn quilt that you can see from the county road 67. Look across the field at the back of the Quonset hut and you will see “Star Pattern”. It was the first barn quilt that I painted.
