#30 VISIT ALABAMA - Quilters of Gee's Bend

Send me a text, I'd love to hear from you!

Hi, thanks for joining me here today! We are off on another adventure. This time to the little rural town of #geesbend #alabama - home of the famous #quilters #collective and my new friends, Mary Ann and Emma Pettway. My friend Tracie and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour through the Black Belt of Alabama.

Growing up learning how to quilt I was fascinated by these #artists who humbly create beauty with little. Their work can be seen in 13!! museums around the world representing African American art that spans generations.

If you are a crafter or LOVE ART, you will definitely want to make a stop and #taketheferry across the river to the towns of Boykin and Gee's Bend ~ Alabama!

Today's vlog is dedicated to @williamarnett who loved and quilt and changed lives in the process! Mr. Arnett passed away at the age of 81 on August 12, 2020, dedicating his life to the unrecognized art of the world.
