Janet Yunghans and Krista Risley are friends who have neighboring Christmas Tree Farms in Southern New Jersey. Their shared love of quilting has fostered an interest in the art of barn quilts. A barn quilt is a large panel of painted wood featuring a traditional quilt block. These striking pieces of public art often represent a family history, local heritage or personal passion. This traditional art form has become very popular in recent years, particularly in rural areas. Janet and Krista will be joined by their artistic friend, Kiesha Bond who will bring her enthusiasm and energy to the class.
