Barn Quilts of LeRoy tour today

 

Today my daughter and I took a trip to Leroy in Genesee County to see the barn quilts for an article I am putting together for the Buffalo News travel section. There are almost 100 barn quilts (made out of wood) displayed in and around LeRoy. We saw quite a few, but weren't able to get to them all. My article will probably be published sometime in October.

Coincidentally, there was an article by another writer in today's Democrat & Chronicle (Rochester) about the quilt trail, so there were a number of other people also driving around looking at the quilts. Here is a link to that article:
