Quilt Barn Trail
The City of Tualatin Arts Advisory Committee has partnered with the Westside Quilters Guild to place this quilt on the barn at Brown's Ferry Park (in Clackamas County) as part of the Quilt Barn Trail of Oregon's Washington County to highlight our agricultural and historical heritage, promote area tourism, create public art, and showcase the art of quilting.
Number 27 on the Quilt Barn Trail is now installed on this great old barn, circa 1940's, at Brown's Ferry Park, 5855 SW Nyberg Lane, Tualatin. It is a short walk from the parking lot. "Crossed Canoes" is the name of this traditional quilt block, chosen because a quiet stretch of the Tualatin River is just behind the trees.
Westside Quilters Guild (WQG) is a vibrant addition to the arts community of Washington County, Oregon. WQG is a public charity, originator of the Quilt Barn Trail of Oregon's Washington County, and member of Oregon Cultural Trust.
Tour the new trail of quilt blocks through rural areas of the Tualatin Valley and see dozens of lovely old barns, historic granges, wineries and more. This self-guided tour celebrates both agricultural and quilting heritage, and each block illustrates the connection each location has to the art of quilting. Experience it today!
For more information about the quilt barn blocks, complete list of barns and map of the trail, visit www.quiltbarns.org.
