-I didn't realize this would be such a touchy subject. I guess I've always heard about not discussing politics and religion, I might be adding underground railroad quilts to that list. :)
But really like other posters have said, it will be a nice way to talk about the underground railroad, black history, and craftsmanship, and quilting etc.
So either way it will be a good conductor for teaching, as well as a warm and comfy quilt. :)
Thanks for everyone's feedback. And I didn't mean to stir up any hard feelings. I guess we all have our own opinions on the subject and we can agree to disagree.
