‘Railroad Crossing’ barn quilt at depot
The finished “Railroad Crossing” barn quilt is now up at the Staples Depot. Pictured are Staples Historical Society members with Ashley Smith, who painted the 4 ft. by 4 ft. quilt. From left are Sally Gorton, Pat Miller, Tom Kajer, Smith and Tom Crawford. The depot quilt has been added to the Barn Quilts of Central MN trail, which can be found at barnquiltsmn.org. The organization is also seeking businesses to help build a Mini Barn Quilt Trail in Staples by displaying 2 ft. by 2 ft. quilts designed and painted by Staples-Motley High School art students.
