QUILTING
The samples of
quilting patterns below can be found in some quilts made by slaves. Notice the details of

blocks" pattern look 3-dimensional? Why are triangle forms used to imitate geese?
What is the importance of the North Star to escaped slaves? Design your own quilt using
cut sections of construction paper and glue.
