Rose quilts have been used as memorial and wedding gifts since the 1800s. As a barn quilt, the Rose block is often hung to honor a parent or commemorate a date painted on the back of the board.
Tips for painting a Rose barn quilt
Layer three values of pink or red (light, medium, dark) so the petals feel dimensional.
