Description

The isolation and hardship of mountain living brought Appalachian women together to stitch and bond over quilting projects. These quilts often expressed family history and local events, using patterns from Scottish, Irish, and German folk traditions blended with Native American,
Amish, and Quaker influences. Join us as quilting author and teacher Carmen Geddes shares some of her favorite award-winning quilts.
