CROW BAR D'SIGNS
Vermont is home for me, but as far back as I can remember I have always loved the western lifestyle and all things horses. That love has greatly influenced the style of my designs. Alongside that, I find inpsiration from my family, a love of flowers, and all genres of music. I can also appreciate a good sense of humor. The saying that 'Life is better when you are Laughing' rings true to me.
My days are filled spending time in the studio. I enjoy the creative process in making the wooden barn quilts, geometric signs and wood wall art pieces and I am always seeking inspiration for new designs.

I believe that your home should be a reflection of your personality and that art should inspire emotion. That said, it is my hope that you find a piece that resonates with you, whether it be a favorite quilt block design or a wall art piece with meaningful colors. All are handcrafted by yours truly from beginning to end, so each piece is literally from my home to yours.

Take a moment to explore my PHOTO GALLERY and you will find a little something for everyone. The wood barn quilts are handcrafted using cedar and pine locally sourced here in Vermont. Each cedar cutout of the inlaid geometric pattern is hand painted and distressed to give them a rustic charm and weathered feel. You will find them in a multitude of colors and a mix of traditional as well as more modern quilt square patterns. Additionally, there are some southwestern style designs that you may enjoy that would look great in any southwestern inspired home.
If you don't find what you are looking for and have an idea in mind, connect with me to begin creating a custom wood wall art piece that is personalized with something unique to you. I am happy to collaborate in designing a piece that you will enjoy for years to come.

What is a Barn Quilt?
What is a Barn Quilt?
Barn quilts are quilt inspired wood wall art panels that are traditionally hung on barns, but you will find them on many types of outbuildings such as a garage, garden shed, fence, boathouse, or porch. They can also be displayed inside your home and are perfect for adding a statement piece your entryway, above your fireplace mantel, or in your master bedroom. They are ideal for adding color, texture, and design to any wall space.
Barn quilts were orginally based on traditional quilt blocks, but any square design can be used and it is solely up to the homeowner/maker as to which pattern and colors they choose. These designs are generally meaningful to the family specifically, such as a mother's or grandmother's favorite quilt square, and they instantly become family heirlooms.
Wooden barn quilts can also be seen as public works of art and you will find Barn Quilt Trails in many small communities across rural America. Barn quilt trails are a collection of large painted wood barn quilts along a specific route that can be enjoyed from a car. They are generally made and installed by community members and landowners
In essence, barn quilts are Americana at it's finest and are a nod to our rural heritage and the landscape that defines it.
What do you make? Indoor Barn Quilts or Outdoor Barn Quilts?
What do you make? Indoor Barn Quilts or Outdoor Barn Quilts?
Crow Bar D'signs offers two styles of barn quilts. You will find the smaller decorative barn quilts that are for display inside your home or outdoors under your covered porch or patio setting. These are pieced wood mosaics that are created using smaller individual pieces of cedar that are laid out in a quilt block pattern. Each piece is then hand painted and distressed. These smaller barn quilts have a pine or cedar framing as well as hanging hardware on the back.
The larger barn quilt panels for outside are hand painted quilt block patterns on MDO that is sealed with an outdoor spar urethane for protection and durability. These are medium to large in size (2' x 2' or 3' x 3'). If you are interested in purchasing one for your home, barn, or garage, please connect with me and share what pattern and colors you are looking for.
Where do you get your materials?
Where do you get your materials?
I purchase all of my cedar and piine from two local and family owned lumber mills that are nearby my home in Woodbury, Vermont - P&R Lumber and Authentic Log Homes. They provide me with premium grade wood and the best customer service. It is important to me to support as many local businesses as I can.
