Barn Quilts Fabric coming in August 2021
THE FABRIC INSPIRATION
I didn’t grow up on a farm or even in the country but I have an early affinity for barns. My dad was a college professor and an avid reader. I have many memories of trips to Baldwin’s Book Barn – a used bookstore housed in the most amazing dairy barn near our home in West Chester, PA.
Built in 1822 this 5 story barn had so many nooks and crannies, odd staircases and interesting doors to explore! My love of barns began with books – an unusual combination I know, but one that has me fascinated with the sizes, shapes and stories of barns to this day.
“Barn Quilts” will include 14 prints and 2 panels: one with 6 barns for placemats or pillows and one large barn quilt panel.
There will be a free quilt pattern from Riley Blake Designs, “The Quilt Trail”, that will also be available as a boxed kit.
Watch the video to see a preview of the prints and some samples of projects I’ll be sharing when the fabric comes out.
I hope you enjoyed this preview of the Barn Quilts fabrics coming to stores in August 2021! I’m excited to see what you create!

Will you have spring and summer barn panels?
Hi Loraine! There are 3 fabric collections in the Barn Quilts Season – the original is an everyday and then the Fall and Winter. You can see the first collection – which should still be available – here > http://tarareed.com/fabric/barn-quilts-fabric/
