This quilt pattern is UNDERGROUND RAILROAD. I made this quilt in a class setting over several months. Each block symbolizes a step taken by slaves fleeing to the north and freedom.

French Braid


2008

FRENCH BRAID pattern quilt. I made this quilt in a class I attended. The best part of making this quilt was the fabric selection. Choosing fabrics that graduated in color was fun. Each student's quilt was very unique. The fabric is pieced on the bias, making it a challenging project.
