The quilt this mural was patterned after was made by Paul Coates Mother-In-Law  who grew up on the farm.  She was part Cherokee Indian and often used bright colors in her quilts.   The mural was painted by art students at nearby Sullivan South High School in Kingsport.  They were led in this effort by Art Instructor Betty O'neid.  The floral detail in the center star was painted by a female student who returned to her native Mexico upon her graduation in May 2004.

Safety & Respecting Private Property

When viewing and enjoying the Quilt Trail use caution when slowing or stopping near a site.  Stopping along busy roads can be dangerous and illegal.  All sites are on private property and should be viewed from the public road unless otherwise indicated at the site if it is a business open to the public.   We are indebted to our barn hosts for their generosity.
