Have you ever seen a barn quilt?  You most likely have and never knew what it was called.  You probably just assumed it was a design created on the side of a barn as you passed by.  Barn quilts takes the idea of a quilt square and moves that idea to 4x4 or 8x8 plywood or aluminum.

  A typical barn quilt will come equipped with bold colors and geometric shapes that can be easily seen from afar.  This way, someone can see the barn from a distance when driving down a rural road.  Many designers have taken to grabbing inspiration from their family or land to make their barn quilt different from the rest.
