There is actually a "quilt tour" in this area of barns painted with quilt blocks. At the Quilt Expo in Knoxville they had a quilt of small blocks that were replicas of each of the barn blocks and there was a raffle for it..... I didn't win... :cry: In Amish country in Pennsylvania you will see something similar, there are "hexes" or hex signs on the barns.. they are lovely.
