The Upper Cumberland Quilt Trail is part of the continuing commitment of the Upper Cumberland Quilt Festival to the preservation of this historical craft of traditional quilting.
We Have Many to Thank for Making this Possible…we say Thanks to:
The farm and barn owners for giving us permission to hang the painting on their properties. We are especially grateful to our Quilters and their families for allowing us to use their treasured quilts and patterns.
Our artists, Julie Styer and Sandra Darrow, of the Upper Cumberland Arts Alliance, who spent many hours designing and painting.
Ron Sweeney, for painting the Star of Bethlehem and hanging all of the paintings.
Bill Herren for painting our first barn on Dry Valley Road
The Algood School children and their teacher Wren Van Hooser, and Sandra Darrow & 8th grade students at Cornerstone Middle School in Baxter & Janis Nunnally.
Barn Quilts are Art! and the art of the barn quilt is both the art of the community and the art of community. Travel with me, and explore the growth of a grassroots art movement.
