What partners were recruited to help with the barn quilt project?

The first presentation was to the local REC (Sac County Rural Electric Cooperative). Kevin Peyton asked for their in-kind contribution to mount the quilts on the barns with their boom trucks. This was the most essential partner; without the help they gave in mounting the barn quilts, the project likely would have stopped at the idea stage.

Putting the quilts on the peaks of the barns is quite a job and most farmers don't have the equipment to reach that high safely. Other early presentations were to a local quilters group, who agreed to choose the patterns and colors, and actually mark the patterns on the wood. He gave a presentation to the local Extension staff and council, asking for their help in forming a Barn Quilt Committee to give leadership to the project, as well as to manage the finances and to help with correspondence and publicity.

He met with the local economic development and tourism directors to get their input and cooperation, as well as the Arts Council and ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
