BQDC # 25, For Blaze’s Heart Traditional Cache

Please do NOT attempt to find at night.  The quilt should be in plain view when you are at the cache site.  Please do not try to feed the animals in the fenced area as they are on strict diets (and they do occasionally bite).  The electric fence can also “bite”.  There is no need to go up to the fence.

Cache placed with permission of property owners J & L Meyer

Although the quilt is listed in the published brochure as “Four Blazes Hearts” it is really named “For Blaze’s Heart”.  It is named in honor of the Meyer’s horse Blaze and the heart it always showed when being ridden.

It may not be a full size barn like most of the other barn quilts, but it does provide a nice location for a quilt square.

This cache will bring you to a viewing location for one of the Barn Quilts of Door County.  The quilt is one of 45 placed in Door County between 2010-2012 as a joint project of the UW-Extension, 4-H members and leaders, FFA members and alumni, local quilt guild members and other volunteers.

The goals of the Door County Barn Quilt Project are:

• Promote the agricultural heritage of Door Co.

• Provide education about the art and history of quilting

• Highlight the architecture and historical significance of barns throughout Door Co.

• Encourage economic development by promoting rural tourism

• Build an adult-youth partnership through the implementation of the project

More information on the project can be seen at http://barnquiltsofdoorcounty.com

Please tread lightly as you search out the cache.  CITO and BYOP.  Feel free to post pictures of the barn quilt, but please don’t give away the cache location or container.

Happy Caching!
