A lot of work goes into making a barn quilt. The congregation was asked to submit quilt ideas and then voted on their favorite. Jan, Mary and Beth got us going and several took their turn at painting. You will have to keep watching for the end result!

Barn Quilt Painting

The congregation is invited to help paint the barn quilt.  Please let Mary Zach know if you are interested! Right now we are looking at June 8th.
