We're home after spending the day in the West Union, Iowa area. We had the great fortune of meeting the Fayette County Barn Quilt Project committee in the morning. What terrific marketers. Beautiful barn quilts are blanketing the entire county. We met at Moonlight Stitching Studio - Sisters Retreat. If you're thinking of going on a quilting retreat, this is THE place to go! Give Deb Thies (owner) a call at 563-422-8212.

Diane and I met with more very gracious barn owners and snapped lots more photos. We can't wait to start writing their stories so we can share them with you in Every Barn Tells a Story. We had a wonderful trip, but as always, it's great to be home.
