This painted barn quilt is located just off Broadway Street at Floors Now in Tillsonburg, Ontario. The Floors Now building (formerly Stubbes Countrywide, now next door) is actually shaped like a barn.
"The block on the Stubbe’s Furniture Barn honours this
area’s First Nations. Prior to European settlement, Oxford
County was home to many First Native villages, one of
which was located just west of here. An archaeological
dig conducted in 2000 discovered an Iroquoian village
dating to approximately 1400. that covered over 20
acres, making it the largest known pre-contact Iroquoian
village of its time in southern Ontario."
