I’ve never seen a barn with so many louvers. They are sort of arranged but still a bit crooked, and not quite centered up on each other, or the wall. There are no barn doors, where I would expect them to be.

With Mom & Dad visiting this weekend, we decided to hit one of the local summer events, the Sisters Quilt Show.
