Write-up For the Southeastern Oklahoma Quilt Barn Square

 Inspiration for a quilt square design can come from anywhere.  

 Once you've found the perfect look, here are the steps to bringing your square to life.  

 You'll want that beautiful quilt square to last, so use Exterior Grade Plywood 3/4 inch (or metal from 

  a sign maker) cut to size = 4ft x 4ft, 6ft x 6ft, or 8ft x 8ft.  

 Be sure to use brand named "Frog Tape" to keep your lines leak free.

You'll also need kilz paint, exterior latex paint (in whatever colors you want in your design) and 3 inch screws.  

Step 2. Prime Your Square

   Prime your square with Kilz paint with a brush - 2coats- front, back and edges (metal needs only front primed)   

     Draw your design in pencil      

Step 4. Paint!

       Paint your design your exterior latex - 3 coats each color including edges       

Step 5. Hang your Square

Attach the square with 3 inch screws into solid wood, metal or frame 

Contact the Bonham Visitors Center at info@visitbonham.com for questions and to register your square location in the trail. The trail map is updated annually, or as needed.
