Take A Drive Through Rural Alabama To Experience This Colorful Barn Quilt Trail
Alabama is home to many unique places and things. For example, while driving through the Yellowhammer State, you’ll come across a collection of barns and buildings with colorful quilt squares. This unique collection is located along the Alabama Barn Quilt Trail, which you can read all about below. Check it out!
The Alabama Barn Quilt Trail, which was established in 2016, is a collection of hand-painted barn quilt blocks. Each of these colorful blocks were inspired by a traditional block pattern.
Today, barn quilts are part of what's become known as "The American Quilt Trail Movement." Currently, this quilt trail is also one of the fastest growing public art movements in the United States.
Each year, thousands of people take this scenic drive in Alabama and across the nation. They can't wait to discover the colorful quilt squares that have been carefully displayed on barns and buildings.
