AUBURN STUDIES THE QUILTS

Since the Summer of 2003, Auburn University faculty from different colleges and departments have been researching the Quilts of Gee's Bend. The research covers the context of the quilts from historical, artistic, social, and literary angles. View some of their findings on this page.
