That's a first barn quilt
Henry & Annella Branan's barn quilt was the first one we saw while driving around Chatt Hills. And true to the nature of barn quilts, it caused a double-take, followed by an ear-to-ear smile at seeing this delightful surprise.
The Branan's thought they had discovered a slice of heaven when moving to Chatt Hills. They both have an affinity for collecting and making rural crafts and their 1950s farm house seemed the perfect home. And then the property next store came up for sale, and their delight grew at the thought of owning the two large shops. Today, the larger shop is Henry's woodworking domain, while the smaller building is their son's home and a canvas for their barn quilt. |
