Glimpse into my Culture Quilt block
Through my quilt block, which represented my ties to farming and the fields of cotton which my family grew, I took a closer look at the history and traditions of my family. Hands-on work has long been treasured as was shown by the bird houses. The boot represents the factory where my grandfather worked after THE war when the fields no longer could provide as well as our traditions of taking our shoes off at the door to protect my grandmother's tile floors from the metal fragments of the shop.
