Stars and Cubes

Located in Kingsport, this waypoint along the Quilt Trail is part of Sullivan County, within the East Tennessee region.

MAIN INFORMATION

The quilt this mural was patterned after was made by Paul Coates Mother-In-Law who grew up on the farm. She was part Cherokee Indian and often used bright colors in her quilts.

The mural was painted by art students at nearby Sullivan South High School in Kingsport. They were led in this effort by Art Instructor Betty O'neid. The floral detail in the center star was painted by a female student who returned to her native Mexico upon her graduation in May 2004.
