Barn Quilting Class

Barn Quilt Class, Saturday, March 17, 2018


Eight participants worked diligently to complete their barn quilt projects. Deb Kuennig from the Extension Office offers classes in Imperial and Wauneta area. Not everyone was able to finish their projects, but were able to take supplies home to finish the painting. Every quilt had a different design but all were beautiful.
