Participants will receive a pre-drafted 17" x 17" wooden board, already primed and ready to paint. You’ll learn a brief history of barn quilts, explore painting techniques, and get guidance on selecting a beautiful, balanced color palette. Then, it’s your turn to bring your design to life!
The workshop lasts approximately three hours, and you’ll leave with a completed barn quilt ready to display. The class is led by Courtney Sliga.
Cost: $85 per student
