I enjoyed this so much. Research, African-American quilt history, the why of creating a certain quilt.. Up to the seer to come up with town feeling, understanding, reflecting on the quilt. We each have our own backstory and we bring it to our understanding and enjoyment or discomfort in seeing a quilt... Wow..!! Great dialogue!!
If any of the ladies read this I would like to know four questions.1. Do you use a combination of hand and machine.Or hand stitching only ?2. Do you or have you entered any quilts in quilt shows ? 3.How were you excepted by the predominantly white groups who dominate the quilting conferences……Is there a group in Raleigh?
I am a black woman who quilts ( and I know only one person that quilts )and I live in a city over from these beautiful sisters but their quilting is way over my head…..especially with the free motion quilting. I would need a beginner’s sister circle.
This was outstanding!! Thank you so much for sharing.
I love to watch these types of videos and listen to the stories. Reminds me of my grandma. Blessings...

LOVE this. Thanks SO much for sharing. My dream is to visit Gees Bend someday. Retirement is 2 1/2 years away, this trip is for sure on my list.
I am inspired
