Barn Quilts of Neversink

While on vacation in upstate NY, we always look for local fairs and events to attend and take the kids to see. This year we noticed the Neversink Barn Quilts. The Barn Quilts of Neversink is a project of Neversink Renaissance — a beautification and community development program principally funded by Sullivan Renaissance and the Gerry Foundation. Since its inception in the fall of 2006, the “Barn Quilts” concept has yielded a total of 75 barn quilt panels which have been placed on historic barns,outbuildings, freestanding displays and area businesses in the Town of Neversink. The colorful 8x8- and 4x4-foot quilt panels were designed and painted by local volunteers and
barn owners. Our thanks to the hundreds of local residents whose pride in their community and spirit of volunteerism can be seen across the Township.
I just thought it was gorgeous and a fun thing to do on a rainy day. The brochure gave you three different maps so you could drive around the area to see the various quilts. Of course the boys had no interest but Glenn and I did so we took a drive around and here are some of the photos we got:



Aren't they all lovely? This is just a quick look at this fun and beautiful craft display in Sullivan County. Glenn and I had a fun time driving around hunting for these. Some of them were a bit off the beaten track but that was part of the fun of it. I think he found more than I did but who's counting?
Here's the pdf for the trails to follow in case you'll be in the area.
