The Quilt Trail project began in Adams
County, Ohio, when Donna Sue Groves, a
field representative for the Ohio Arts
Council, decided that she wanted a quilt
square painted on her barn to honor her
mother, a lifelong quilter. Donna Sue
shared her idea with friends in the
community, who offered their help. They
decided that if they were going to paint one
quilt square, they might as well paint
twenty and create a driving tour to attract
tourists to their rural community.
Quilt “Hanging”
Hart County
SCRTC and FRECC has
provided a bucket truck and
workers, who hang the quilts
on barns, delighted to be
part of this heartwarming
community project.
Hart County’s Project began in the Spring of 2008. Hart
County Extension Office worked with a volunteer steering
committee. The project is still continuing with 47 now
placed.
The Quilt Trail project has
taken deep root in
Kentucky and spread
quickly. The first square
in Kentucky was painted
and hung in Carter
County by local volunteers
with support from the
Gateway Resource
Conservation and
Development Council.
