Everyone, LCD PowerPoint, Samples, Trunk Show, Discussion, Other: Handouts highlighting and describing the Bible Quilt blocks

Questions abound about the how, when, and why Harriet Angeline Powers profoundly quilted her precious "Bible Quilt". This legendary folkart quilter shows strength and hopefulness as she stitched the trials and triumphs of her life into her many quilts. Only two of her quilts survive to this day—"The Bible Quilt" and "The Pictorial Quilt". Be inspired to consider the origin and narrative story behind Harriet's appliqué cut-outs of a dove, a high-stepping elephant, a camel, a serpent, and a Leviathan in her "Bible Quilt"! Her voice as an African American artist is integral to her legacy of quilting. www.bquiltin.com
