Read a blog recently about the slave/underground quilts and there might be a fallacy there....IF you neighbor left out quilts in the dead of winter it might raise suspicions of "why".....makes for great fiction reading. I personally want to follow up with the history of these quilts. Since I'm new at quilting and not a history, nor civil war history buff, I'm curious.
NOW, I'll add HOBO quilts to my list of stuff to read/learn about. Thanks for the incentive.....
