These pieces were inspired by their class visit to the Commons Barn, the Friesen Housebarn, and the Bergthal Schoolhouse.

Floor Painting Bee! 🎨

Margruite Krahn is an artist living in Neubergthal who works at uncovering and recreating the original hand-painted floors found in Mennonite house barns from the 1870s to the 1940s.

This spring, she hosted a Floor Painting Bee at the historic Klippenstein housebarn, where 62 women volunteered, between March 29 to April 16.

Practice first, snacks second, and then on to the real thing!

Thank you to everyone who helped bring these patterns back to life!
